The FIFA Women's World Cup is underway! Here's how to get in the spirit if you're in the Bay Area.
After all, they've come home with the gold in four previous World Cups, winning the final match in 2019 , 2015 , 1999 and 1991 .
The Bay Area ties to the upcoming Women's World Cup are strong, with Reina Bonta, daughter of California Attorney General Rob Bonta and state Assemblymember Mia Bonta, D-Oakland, playing for the Philippines national team. The"Village" will feature jumbo-screen viewings of World Cup games at different locations throughout the city, and each location for these public screenings is accessible via public transit. On Friday, head to the Crossing at East Cut for the U.S. vs. Vietnam; on July 26, Embarcadero Plaza will be the go-to spot for the U.S. vs. Netherlands match.
In San Francisco, some go-to sports-watching spots include Kezar Pub just outside of Golden Gate Park, the Mad Dog in the Fog on Haight Street, the San Francisco Athletic Club on Divisadero and Hi Tops in the Castro. In the East Bay, there's McNally's Irish Pub in Oakland's Rockridge neighborhood and the Grand Avenue-located Athletic Club Oakland.
Or, when en route to a Women's World Cup get-together, pop in the AirPods and give a listen to"The Women's Soccer Show,""Snacks" with USWNT members Sam Mewis and Lynn Williams or"Attacking Third" - each of these podcasts focuses on women's soccer. There's also a multitude of relevant books out there, such as"The National Team: The Inside Story of the Women Who Changed Soccer" by Caitlin Murray,"Soccerwomen: The Icons, Rebels, Stars, and Trailblazers Who Transformed the Beautiful Game" by Gemma Clarke and autobiographies from USWNT members past and present, such as Rapinoe, Morgan, Wambach, Ertz, Brianna Scurry and Mia Hamm.
