The Washington Spirit takes on OL Reign in a semifinal rematch of the 2021 National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) playoffs at D.C.’s Audi Field on May 1. Washington will face the other 11 NWSL teams two times apiece in the 2022 season over the span of five months. The Spirit’s first regular-season home game, scheduled to start at 5 p.m., is the first of six home games at the Buzzard Point venue. It will also host the first road visits from the league’s two expansion sides, Angel City FC (May 15) and San Diego Wave FC (Sept. 10).
As part of their agreement with D.C. United, the reigning NWSL champions will play their remaining five home games at Segra Field in Loudoun County, Virginia. Most of Washington’s games at their second home will take place in the summer. The Spirit’s first regular-season match at Segra Field is a rematch of the NWSL Championship game against Chicago Red Stars on June 1. The Spirit will end their regular season against the Houston Dash on Oct. 1 at Audi Field.
