Once these steps have been completed, a representative from the WPL will contact the Club Representative listed on the Club application with questions or next steps.

If the Club is approved by US Club Soccer, US Club will inform the WPL of their approval and request the “status” of the Club’s application to be admitted to the WPL.

If approved by both organizations, US Club will then create a Gotsport account and connect the account with the WPL.

After the Gotsport account is set up, Club representatives must contact the WPL office at info@wpl-soccer.com to schedule training to use GotSport and learn about the WPL.
