Owners and players need to take a stand against these extremely young players

Mak Whitham became the youngest ever player to appear in a game the other night at 14yrs old. The NWSL was bragging about it on their socials.

When are we going to start seeing some accountability from players in voicing opposition to playing against developing children as full-grown adults in a contact sport?

How about the training staff and coaches? Owners? I don’t know how NWSL can advertise itself as being empowering to women or socially conscious when they are literally exploiting the health and development of children for a 5 seconds of bragging over their youth.

And yes, I have the same complaint over MLS too, but I’ll hold NWSL to an even higher standard because they have opportunity to shape culture
