NWSL Goal of the Week

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The National Women's Soccer League Goal of the Week is a weekly soccer award given to individual players in the National Women's Soccer League. The honor is awarded by popular social media vote to the player deemed to have scored the best goal over the past week. The award was given out during the 2016—2019 seasons and was reintroduced in 2024, in place of the Player of the Week award, which was awarded from 2013—2023.
