The National Women’s Soccer League is bolstering its executive ranks with two key hires as the league continues its rapid growth.
The NWSL announced Wednesday that Brian Kelly will join as chief commercial officer and Rachel Epstein as chief marketing officer. Kelly begins immediately, while Epstein is set to start later this month.
The appointments come as the 2026 season opens with strong momentum, including rising viewership, record attendance and a landmark crowd of 63,004 for Denver Summit FC’s inaugural home opener at Empower Field at Mile High.
