With the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup underway, there isn't a better person to have on and break it all down than Lisa Wrightsman, Founder & Managing Director of Street Soccer USA Sacramento.
Soccer has meant everything to Lisa. Her success at Elk Grove High School and Sac State lead to a run on a local professional women's soccer league. But when that league folded, she stopped playing. What happened next lead to where she is today with Street Soccer USA Sacramento.
We discuss why the women's soccer game is better than the men's (5:00), why a professional women's league would work now (6:00), the life-changing moment leading to founding Street Soccer USA Sacramento (14:30), hosting the Street Soccer USA National Cup last year and doing it again this year, and fighting homelessness in Sacramento (28:00).
