Womenโs sports fans should not have to work harder to be fans. Finding a score, start time or where to watch should be easy. Fans are showing up. Athletes are delivering. Sports apps & media infrastructure need to catch up. This is table stakes. https://t.co/6kh1PHTQYE
At the end of 2025, there was so much unknown about what the future looked like for Trinity Rodman - in terms of her club, her minutes, her role post-back-injury.
In 2026 for the Spirit: 14 goals, eight assists, 31 starts, with more to come. What a year.
Trinity Rodman said she has evolved her game to be more connected off the ball.
"I've always, in this environment, been in a place where I can try those things, mess up, and I know my team has my back."

Comoโs menโs team has done incredible this season in the Serie A, and qualified for Europe.
But donโt forget, Comoโs womenโs team also had an incredible season and won the Serie B Femminile. ๐๐พ
USWNT legend Heather O'Reilly is head of women's football for Como.
โListen, this was something I was not expecting to come into my life,โ she told U.S. Soccer podcast.
โThis was a little bit random, I was doing various things like some television work and some coaching, and I really sort of was enjoying both of those avenues, but I didn't know what exactly or where exactly I wanted to put my energies fully.
โAnd then the TST tournament, I came in contact with these people from Como because they were in our group play the first year of TST.
โWe were both out of the tournament. So me just being friendly and trying to be a nice host, because I live in North Carolina, I thought it was a nice thing to do.
โI was like, let's have a bit of a party after our game together, right? Like, let's get the apple spritz. We'll order some pizza.
โWe had a wonderful little pasta party after the game, and not like I got the job the next day, but I think that they kept me in mind as somebody, as they were growing their women's side of their club.
โSo about a year after the infamous pasta party, they offered me the position to sort of head up their women's department, meaning they had a team, but it was like, recreational point, and they knew that I wanted to live in the States.
โLike I said, I have a young family. My husband, Dave, is trying to start a business, and so it wasn't the time for us to completely move to Europe. And I was very clear on that.
โBut they said that's fine. Do it remotely. This is more of an advisor role, and come over as much as you can. And so for the last two years, I have been going over to Italy about once a month for about four or five days at a time.
โWe were in the fourth division. And so I had to find some staff and some players to try to win fourth division.
โThen we moved up to Serie B, which is obviously the second division, and only one team playing gets promoted.
โAnd so I put together an excellent staff, and that excellent staff helped me find some players that were ready to roll up their sleeves and face this wonderful challenge of trying to win Serie B, right?
โAnd we just sealed the league. We won Serie B. We are promoted to Serie A. It was huge with three games to go. So we convincingly won the league.โ
What a job OโReilly is doing in Italy ๐๐พ
