“Following the advice and counsel of our medical advisers, the NWSL is pleased to be taking the next steps to safely return to competition,” NWSL commissioner Lisa Baird said in a statement.The small groups cannot exceed eight players during Phase 2 of the nine-team league’s return to play protocol. Players will have complete a pre-training assessment and undergo daily symptom and temperature screenings as well as other tests.

Players will have to arrive in their training gear and wear masks when arriving and departing the facility. They will be allowed to use weight rooms, training rooms and meeting rooms. The NWSL season was originally slated to start April 18. The league allowed voluntary individual outdoor workouts on May 6.

Also Monday, English football authorities announced they have called off the Barclays FA Women’s Super League and second-tier FA Women’s Championship seasons.The two leagues suspended play April 3 due to the pandemic.
