Canada Soccer’s Women’s National Team have announced their roster traveling to Le Mans, France to play France during the April 2023 FIFA international window. The camp will mark the second time Canada comes together during the 2023 international season as they continue their preparations for the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023™.

“With the World Cup around the corner, this camp is pivotal,” said Bev Priestman, Canada Soccer’s Women’s National Team Head Coach. “We will get to do some real good work as a group, both tactically but also culturally. I’m excited to get the group together after a very difficult February window.”

Canada will face France for the 16th time in program history at 15.00 ET / 12.00 PT on 11 April at Marie-Marvingt stadium in Le Mans, France. The match will be broadcast live on OneSoccer, available as a linear channel on Telus’s Optik TV (Channel 980) as well as online at OneSoccer.ca, through the OneSoccer app and on the fuboTV Canada platform. Fans will also find extended coverage for the matches across Canada Soccer’s digital channels on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube featuring the hashtag #CANWNT.

“We purposely targeted a one game window, where we will rehearse a true Women’s World Cup lead in and the associated processes,” added Bev Priestman. “This camp is the last opportunity to see players in our environment before I have the difficult task of picking a 23-player World Cup squad in June.”

At the FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023™, Canada will face Nigeria on Friday 21 July in Melbourne, Republic of Ireland on Wednesday 26 July in Perth, and co-host Australia on Monday 31 July in Melbourne.

The FIFA Women’s World Cup Australia & New Zealand 2023™, which will be held from 20 July 2023 to 20 August 2023, will see 30 nations join the hosts Australia and New Zealand who have already qualified for the biggest tournament in the world. The FIFA Women’s World Cup™ will be a tournament of firsts. In 2023, fans will see 32 nations playing 64 matches across nine host cities in Australia and New Zealand for the first time in FIFA Women’s World Cup™ history.
