San Diego Wave will be hoping to turn the tides on a disappointing 2024 season in the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL) as the new campaign looms on the horizon.
After a dominant 2023 season that saw the side finish on top of the league standings and take home the NWSL Shield, San Diego Wave started 2024 off on the right foot by winning the NWSL Challenge Cup. However, that victory didn't set the tone for the season ahead as the side struggled to pick up points, recording 13 losses and a 10th place finish.
Entering the 2025 season under the new leadership of former Arsenal head coach Jonas Eidevall, San Diego will be eager to right the wrongs of their past. However, they will have to learn to live without the likes of Naomi Girma, Jaedyn Shaw and Alex Morgan, who no longer represent the pink white and blue,
San Diego Wave will commence the 2025 NWSL season at BMO Stadium as they take on Angel City FC on March 16.
