NWSL records eight misconduct complaints from February to July

The NWSL has logged eight complaints regarding misconduct across four clubs from February 1 to July 31, 2026. The complaints consist of five related to sexual misconduct, along with two each for sexual harassment and retaliation. These details emerged from documents submitted to the attorneys general of Illinois, Washington, D.C., and New York, after the league's 2025 settlement addressing prior systemic abuses. Though the reports are heavily redacted, they follow a long history of abuse within the league, which prompted significant changes in team ownership and staff in recent years. The NWSL is required to provide updates every six months as part of the settlement terms.
