Global seven-a-side series launched with $100m investment
The Guardian
|March 21, 2025
A lucrative new seven-a-side global women's football series has been announced with the first event set to take place in Portugal from 21-23 May.
The competition has been named the 'World Sevens Football' and it is understood there is a commitment to invest $100m (£77m) in the series over a five-year period.
The new series of invitational "grand slam" tournaments, first reported by the Guardian, will feature $5m prize money per event. It is funded by investment from the US-based philanthropist Jennifer Mackesy, co-owner of the NWSL club Gotham FC, and will be broadcast live by the streaming platform Dazn.
The clubs involved in the first eight-team competition have not been confirmed, but a different set of clubs will compete in the second event in November-December, which will be staged on a different continent. The winning team at each event will receive $2.5m (£1.9m).
