We are pleased to announce that the Council for Standards in Human Service Education (CSHSE) recently received notification, effective January 27, 2014, that the Council has been granted recognition from the Council for Higher Education Accreditation (CHEA).
NWSL became the first U.S. professional women's soccer league to reach nine teams with the expansion of the MLS-backed Houston Dash in 2014; expansion interest, particularly from MLS teams, has continued.
Including the NWSL's two professional predecessors, Women's Professional Soccer (2009â2011) and the Women's United Soccer Association (2001â2003), it was the ninth overall season of FIFA and USSF-sanctioned top division women's soccer in the United States.
