USL Wリーグ

USL Wリーグは、アメリカ合衆国内でナショナル女子サッカーリーグに次ぐレベルとされる、女子サッカーのセミ・プロフェッショナルリーグである。USLが運営母体。大学女子サッカー部との二重登録を認めているため、リーグに所属するクラブで多くの大学生選手を受け入れている。

1. 歴史
-----

1995年に開幕。当時の名称は「アメリカ女子インターリージョナルリーグ」  であったが、後現在の名称に改められた。開幕当初、リーグに所属するクラブのうちいくつかはアマチュアレベルであったにもかかわらず、アメリカ国内、後アメリカ国外のトップレベルの選手たちに、プロ選手として活躍する機会をもたらした。そのプロ契約選手たちがプレーの水準を引き上げたため、高いプレー水準を持つリーグとなった。

1995-97年度は、Wリーグは全国1ディヴィジョンのみの形で開催された。1998年度シーズン:"?>:GBGFGBFGB

幕前に、W1  とW2  の2部に分割された。この制度での運営は、WUSAが開幕した2001年度シーズンまで行われ、翌2002年度より、W1とW2を統合し、再び1部制での開催形態に戻った。しかし、2003年でWUSAが廃止になったため、その後2008年まで実質的な全米女子1部リーグとしての機能を請け負っていた。

2009年に新しい1部リーグとなるアメリカ女子プロサッカーリーグが開幕し、USL Wリーグは2部リーグ相当に「降格」したが、独立採算方式であるため双方のリーグ間との直接的な昇格・降格の制度はない。
