The WLL will feature four teams and showcase many top players, with its launch tied to the 2025 PLL Championship Series. This new initiative follows the success of the PLL's "Unleashed" exhibitions, which have already highlighted women's lacrosse talent in Olympic-style Sixes play, building momentum ahead of lacrosse’s return to the Olympics.

In 2024, the PLL assigned official home cities to its men’s teams, setting a foundation for fan engagement and localized growth.

While specific women’s teams and cities haven’t been confirmed, it's anticipated they may align with cities represented in the men's league, such as Boston, New York, Philadelphia, Maryland, Carolina, Denver, Utah, and California This new structure signals a move toward greater regional identity and could mean that future women's teams will also have a regional or city-based alignment. The league is working to finalize details and is expected to announce these team locations and schedules soon.
