After the success of the inaugural Women’s International Champions Cup in 2018, we’re proud to return with the Women’s International Champions Cup presented by Budweiser in 2019. The tournament, which is the first of its kind, will bring together four of the best women’s teams from across the globe to compete in Cary, North Carolina, from August 15-18.

Holders and National Women’s Soccer League champions North Carolina Courage return to defend their crown and are joined by the side they conquered in last year’s final, five-time UEFA Champions League winners Olympique Lyonnais.
