Canada Soccer strikes two-year compensation deal with women’s national team Globe_Sports

With the World Cup approaching, the Canadian Soccer Association has struck a two-year compensation deal with the women’s national team.

Canada Soccer says its new deal with the women runs through 2020 and covers player payments, performance and roster bonuses for competitions including this summer’s World Cup in France as well as image rights use, player appearances, travel and accommodation.Canada Soccer negotiated the deal with the Canadian Soccer Players’ Association, formed in 2016 to formalize negotiations. The agreement essentially covers major tournaments and qualifying competitions as well as performance bonuses.

The agreement includes the practice of Canada Soccer helping fund the salaries of select national team players in the National Women’s Soccer League, a program that covered 11 internationals including captain Christine Sinclair last season. Montopoli says things like per diem are the same for both the Canadian men and women, unlike in the U.S.“We are happy to have reached a two-year agreement that covers both the FIFA Women’s World Cup year, as well the Summer Olympics in 2020,” veteran midfielder Diana Matheson, player rep for the Players’ Association, said in a statement.
