OUR STORY
Welcome to San Diego Wave Fútbol Club, the most successful expansion team in National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) history. Since its inception in December 2021, Wave FC has broken countless attendance records and won three major trophies – all while fostering a diverse community of game changers in our San Diego community whose aim is to lower barriers of entry, create new opportunities for underserved groups, and inspire the next generation of leaders.
Our Club’s vision is to be a force for good through the game of football and drive meaningful impact for women and girls not only on the field but in the workplace, at home, and in society. On the field, the club is represented by established international stars like Catarina Macario and Kenza Dali, as well as some of the brightest young talents in fútbol like San Diego native Melanie Barcenas.
Wave FC plays its home matches at the brand-new Snapdragon Stadium in Mission Valley, where the club and its supporters come together each week to celebrate the beautiful game and create a thrilling home-field advantage that only San Diego can deliver.
