Amid the growth of women’s sports, a building boom

Investment in women’s sports is driving a building boom, including new facilities like a $150 million training center serving the Portland Thorns and a new WNBA team for 2026.
The NWSL's first purpose-built women's soccer stadium has opened, and plans for more facilities include a $78 million training center for the Indiana Fever, ensuring teams no longer need to share space with men's teams.
Public interest and attendance in women's sports have surged, with the WNBA experiencing nearly double attendance in 2023.
