Support growing for proposed Canadian women’s soccer league
Diana Matheson’s to-do list keeps growing. But so does support for her planned Canadian women’s professional soccer league.
The Project 8 team includes strategic adviser Nathalie Cook, a former Bell Media and TSN vice-president. Former Olympian Georgia Simmerling and Shawn Small, co-founder/president of the RISE Integrated Sports and Entertainment consulting agency, serve as directors of global partnerships. The former Canadian international has a current list of some 13 potential owners, either people they have identified themselves or who have reached out to them. Project 8 has intentionally looked for a variety of potential owners, open to everything from MLS franchises to independent groups and “even foreign ownership.”
Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, which owns the NBA Raptors, NHL Maple Leafs and MLS Toronto FC, has expressed interest in both women’s soccer and basketball in the past.
