The National Women’s Soccer League could be the first professional league in the United States to return to the field since the coronavirus shutdown.

The league announced Wednesday that all nine teams will return to play on June 27 with a 25-game tournament at Zions Bank Stadium in Herriman, Utah. The NWSL is the first top-flight league in the United States that has announced a specific date for its plan to return to play.

The NWSL had momentum heading into its eighth season after signing a new TV deal with CBS and bringing Lisa Baird on as commissioner. But the league was forced to suspend its season in mid-March due to the coronavirus crisis.

The 2020 NWSL Challenge Cup will give the league a chance to return to play while taking advantage of much-needed sponsorships. The tournament will be presented by Procter & Gamble and Secret and fans will be able to stream games via CBS All Access. The tournament opener and championship game will air live on CBS. The championship game will be presented by Budweiser.

The NWSL also announced a new multi-year partnership with Verizon on Wednesday, another key sponsorship for the young league.

The tournament, which will take place without fans, will begin with each of the league’s nine clubs playing four games to determine seeding. The top eight teams will advance to the knockout stage of the tournament. The semifinals and championship game will be played at Rio Tinto Stadium in Sandy, Utah. The championship game will take place on July 26.

“As our country begins to safely reopen and adjust to our collective new reality, and with the enthusiastic support of our players, owners, as well as our new and current commercial partners, the NWSL is thrilled to bring professional soccer back to the United States,” Baird said in a statement. “This exciting month-long tournament will showcase our league’s talented players and provide our fans the type of world-class entertainment they’ve come to expect from the NWSL.”

The NWSL has put together protocols to try to ensure the safety of players and staff during the tournament. Both the league’s board of directors and the NWSL Players Association agreed to the measures.

Dell Loy Hansen, the owner of the Utah Royals, is helping to create an “NWSL Village” for the players to be housed and handling the training and competition needs for the nine teams to create a controlled environment. Players, officials and essential staff will also be tested for the virus 48 hours before leaving for the tournament and will be consistently tested and monitored during their time in Utah.
