It’s almost like investing in women’s sports actually works, but what do we know, we aren't financial geniuses.
What actually happened
The fledgling Northern Super League has been boosted in its second year by investment and expansion plans as the women’s game in Canada grows. The six-team NSL, co-founded by former Canada national team player Diana Matheson, announced this summer that it will add a team in Winnipeg in 2027. The league also announced that London-based sports investment firm APEX will invest up to $30 million in the women’s league. And that’s in addition to the $5.45 million that the Canadian government pledged on the day of the league’s first championship last year.
