The league, co-founded by former Canada women's national soccer player Diana Matheson, consists of six Canadian-based teams in Vancouver, Calgary, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal and Halifax.

Each team roster has both Canadian and International talent, including Team Canada veterans Quinn, Desiree Scott and Erin McLeod.

For retired Canadian soccer icon Christine Sinclair, a co-owner of Rise FC, the emotions are starting to set in ahead of the season's launch.

"We have literally waited our whole career for this moment and to see this next generation of Canadians have this opportunity…all the young kids in the stands that can dream a different dream than I had growing up," she said. "Right now, I'm a little emotional."
