(Reuters) - San Diego will be home to a National Women's Soccer League expansion team that will begin playing next year and have former U.S. women's national team coach Jill Ellis as their president, the NWSL said on Tuesday.
The team, whose name, crest, head coach and venue partner will be announced at a later date, will become the top-flight NWSL's 12th franchise when it joins Los Angeles expansion club Angel City FC for the 2022 season.
