US women’s team coach Emma Hayes believes that soccer will become the number one sport in the United States. With her experience coaching in the US and her current role as the head coach of the US Women’s National Team (USWNT), Hayes has seen the growth of the sport firsthand.
A Growing Sport
Hays’ prediction is based on the increasing popularity of soccer in the US, particularly among young people. She notes that the sport is no longer just a participation sport, but also a spectator sport, with the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) and Major League Soccer (MLS) drawing large crowds.
The USWNT has been successful on the international stage, winning four World Cups and five gold medals. Hayes’ team is currently preparing for the FIFA Women’s World Cup next year, and she is confident that they can bring home another championship.
A Measured Approach
Hays is known for her measured approach to the game, and she believes that this approach has helped her team succeed. She emphasizes the importance of being present in the moment and taking things one step at a time.
As a coach, Hayes is not just focused on winning, but also on building strong relationships with her players. She believes that by being authentic, honest, and consistent, she can create a positive and supportive team culture.
