WTW and WSL Football join forces  

Leading global advisory, broking and solutions company, WTW, have become the official insurance partner of the Barclays WSL and WSL2 in a new multi-year partnership.   

The partnership unites two organisations with a shared ambition to support people and build a stronger future. WTW’s expertise in helping people and organisations understand risk, build resilience, make informed decisions and create conditions for stronger performance is a natural fit with WSL Football’s ambition to transform women’s football into the world’s most distinctive club competition for the players and fans of today and tomorrow.

Over the course of the partnership, WTW will collaborate with WSL Football and clubs from the BWSL and BWSL2 to explore solutions designed to support female athletes and help advance the game. A key pillar of the collaboration is the intention to co-create 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.

While injuries are an unavoidable part of football, female players can face different health considerations and risk exposures than their male counterparts. The need for tailored cover has become increasingly clear as the women’s game has grown and professionalised.

For players, appropriate insurance can help protect their earnings and provide greater financial security in the event of injury or illness. For clubs, it can help protect their investment in their players.

WTW adds to WSL Football’s world-leading roster of brand partners that are all driving transformational growth for the women’s game.

Zarah Al-Kudcy, Chief Revenue Officer, WSL Football, said: “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.”
