American women’s soccer dominance could double in frequency.
FIFA president Gianni Infantino said Friday that the federation is considering staging the FIFA Women’s World Cup every two years instead of every four, according to the Associated Press.
Infantino explained that the idea has staying power because of the event’s, “incredible impact for the development of the game.”
“We need to see what kind of big events we can create,” he said. “So we are studying this, of course.”
The FIFA Women’s World Cup is already set to grow in size next time around, growing from 24 to 32 teams in 2023.
The location of that expanded tournament will be decided in June of 2020.
