SheBelieves Cup 2024: What to know about teams, venue, date, and ticket information
Details for the ninth edition of the 2024 SheBelieves Cup presented by Visa tournament have been announced. The four participating teams are Brazil, Canada, Japan, and the United States.
The SheBelieves Cup is structured similarly to the group stage of a World Cup. Each participating team plays two games in different venues over the course of a week. Points are awarded based on the outcome of each match with three points for a win and one point for a draw. The team with the highest number of points at the end of the tournament is declared the SheBelieve Cup champion.
The SheBelieves Cup is set to commence on April 6 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia with all four nations competing will play their first match of the tournament at this venue. Recently, Atlanta has been selected as the future site of the U.S. Soccer National Training Center as a strategic plan to grow soccer across the country.
The four nations will then travel to Columbus, Ohio where Lower.com Field will host the tournament's final two matchups on April 9.
This tournament will be the last one for the USWNT before the Paris 2024 Summer Olympics in France.
“This is a tournament that features three teams already in the Olympics and Japan has a great chance to qualify, so coming off the Gold Cup, these are the exact kinds of games we need to evaluate players and continue to push our team as we prepare for France,” said U.S. interim head coach Twila Kilgore in a statement release by U.S. Soccer.
