Mikaela Shiffrin now part-owner of expansion NWSL team in Denver

The two-time Olympic gold medalist and all-time leader in World Cup wins in Alpine skiing is now part of the ownership group for the NWSL’s expansion team in Denver. The team, still to be named, begins play next season.

‘I’m beyond thrilled to join the ownership group of Denver NWSL and support something so meaningful in the community I call home,” Shiffrin, who is from Vail, Colorado, said in a statement. “The sport culture in Colorado is rich and deep, and — most notably — the growth of women’s sports is one of the most exciting movements in our culture today.’

The Denver team is primarily owned by Rob Cohen. It has already announced plans for its own stadium, the second built specifically for a women’s team after the Kansas City Current’s CPKC Stadium. The team is also building a training facility in suburban Centennial, where it will play games until the permanent stadium is done.

Shiffrin is the latest high-profile athlete to invest in an NWSL team. Tennis players Naomi Osaka and Ons Jabeur are part-owners in the Carolina Courage, while Kevin Durant, Eli Manning and Sue Bird are investors in Gotham FC.
