Orlando Pride are the affiliate women’s team of Orlando City SC who completed their inaugural NWSL campaign in 2016.
With previous chairman Phil Rawlins announcing the establishment of Orlando Pride at Lake Eola Park in October 2015, the team became the tenth franchise to be added to the National Women’s Soccer League.
Announcing former Australia and United States women’s head coach Tom Sermanni as the club’s very first manager that same month, Orlando Pride played their home fixtures at Camping World Stadium in 2016 but joined Orlando City SC at Inter&Co Stadium from 2017.
Breaking the NWSL attendance record for the club’s first ever competitive home game with 23,403 fans applauding a 3-1 victory over Houston Dash in April 2015, Orlando Pride are setting the standard in the women’s game.
With Orlando Pride having also pulled off the marquee signing of USWNT superstar Alex Morgan prior to their inaugural campaign kicking off, the team have already recruited a plethora of fine talents in their early history. The likes of Ashlyn Harris, Ali Krieger and the greatest women’s footballer of all-time, Marta, have all represented the Pride so far.
In 2024, Orlando Pride triumphantly secured the first-ever NWSL trophy – the NWSL Shield – following a 2-0 victory over Washington Spirit at Inter&Co Stadium on October 6.
Just 48 days later, on November 23, Barbra Banda’s decisive goal secured a 1-0 victory for Orlando Pride over Washington Spirit, clinching the 2024 NWSL Championship at CPKC Stadium in Kansas City, Missouri.
Completing a famous double, Orlando Pride became the first professional team to win a major league title for The City Beautiful.
After this incredible record-breaking 2024 season, we’re itching to find out where Seb Hines can take us next!
