In February, the league announced Google Pixel as the official mobile phone partner and the presenting sponsor of the playoffs and Championship game. Theyโ€™ll also be creating a cool new program called Pitchside with Pixel. This new program will allow fans and content creators the opportunity to create pitchside content during NWSL matches using the Google Pixel.ย

CarMax has sponsored NJ/NY Gotham FC for a couple of seasons, but this year, thanks to a new multi-year agreement announced in February, they’ll be the club’s front-of-jersey sponsors. Theyโ€™ll also continue to sponsor the Player of the Match, custom content series, in-game experiences for season ticket holders, and community outreach.ย

While the league’s Nike sponsorship isnโ€™t new, they were able to reset the jersey designs for the 2024 season. For the first time, we saw many clubs leaning into their community and creating special jerseys to wear for this season. Itโ€™s an exciting time for the NWSL, and more creative jerseys were a much-needed next step for the league to continue to grow.
