The SheBelieves Cup is part of U.S. Soccer's SheBelieves initiative to inspire and empower women and girls to achieve their goals in sport and beyond. The tournament was first played in 2016. The USA won the inaugural edition and France took top honors in 2017. The USA won again in 2018, and England finished first in 2019, but the USA returned to the top of the podium in 2020 and took top honors in both 2021 and 2022.
Throughout the course of the first year, TNT's programming schedule will reflect a balanced approach to appearances featuring both the USWNT and USMNT. In addition, Bleacher Report, House of Highlights, B/R Football, and HighlightHER will provide content to our fans throughout the year, elevating the profile of the players and their stories with fans.
WBD Sports and the U.S. Soccer Federation are in the first of an eight-year multimedia rights agreement, making TNT and HBO Max the exclusive English-language home to more than 20 Women's and Men's National Team matches every year.
