The WPSL deal is EasyCoach’s first league-wide partnership in the United States. EasyCoach already powers club operations for federations and clubs in Europe and Africa, including Villarreal CF, Shakhtar Donetsk, the Israel Football Association, Croatia FA, and Kazakhstan FA. This is the first time an entire U.S. league has standardized on the platform.
For the WPSL, it gives 180+ clubs across 38 states access to the same tools the world’s top professional clubs use. For EasyCoach, it marks the start of a U.S. market entry, and a meaningful expansion into women’s football.
