Sporting JAX’s debut takes center stage this August as the club hosts two historic preseason friendlies at UNF’s Hodges Stadium in the International Women’s Soccer Series presented by Visit Jacksonville. Starting with its first home match on Saturday, August 2, the club will host reigning Scottish Women’s Premier League champions, Hibernian FC Women. One week later, on Sunday, August 10, the club will face Wrexham AFC Women, the rising Welsh club whose story captivated global audiences thanks to celebrity owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney in the hit FX/Hulu documentary, Welcome to Wrexham. Both matches will kick off at 7 p.m. EST. Following the preseason friendlies, Sporting JAX will debut in the Gainbridge Super League with its home opener against DC Power FC on Saturday, August 23, at 7 p.m. at Hodges Stadium. All regular-season and playoff matches will stream live on Peacock, with local broadcast details to be announced soon.
