Women’s Super League announces WTW partnership

The Women’s Super League (WSL) has announced a multi-year partnership with WTW, an advisory, broking, and solutions company.

WTW has come on board as the Official Insurance Partner of the Barclays Women’s Super League (BWSL) and Women’s Super League 2 (BWSL2).

The partnership will see WTW work with the two WSL tiers and their clubs to support female athletes and grow the game. At the heart of the collaboration will be the creation of an insurance solution “designed specifically for players at BWSL and BWSL2 clubs which will help transform how they are supported and protected throughout their careers.”

Zarah Al-Kudcy, Chief Revenue Officer, WSL Football, commented:

“Ensuring we have the right protection and support in place for players during their careers and for clubs is an important part of building a truly professional and sustainable game. Bringing on WTW as a new partner with specialist expertise, whose people-first approach aligns with our values, means that together we can explore new ways to address the specific needs of women footballers and help create a stronger future for players, clubs and the wider game.

“Like all our WSL Football partnerships, it is more than investment into the league, it is investment into the whole women’s football ecosystem and ensures that the infrastructure around the game continues to develop alongside it.” 

Carl Hess, CEO, WTW, added:

“At WTW, our purpose is to transform tomorrows. We see this as the driving force behind everything we do — and it’s a vision shared by WSL Football. This long-term collaboration presents a unique opportunity to bring our risk, insurance and advisory capabilities to women’s football. Our focus is on enabling players, clubs and leagues to thrive with confidence as the women’s game continues its rapid ascent on the world stage. We are proud to be working with WSL Football to drive meaningful, lasting impact.”
