Mountain West Unveils 2026 Women's Soccer Calendar
The Mountain West Conference announced its 2026 women's soccer schedule on May 20, providing the first comprehensive view of the upcoming season and setting the stage for a competitive campaign across the conference.
Each of the conference's eleven member institutions will contest ten regular‑season matches, a format designed to balance home and road responsibilities while fostering heightened competition among the teams.
The season is slated to begin on Thursday, September 24, 2026, and will run through early November, culminating in the championship the week of November 8, a timeline that gives teams ample time to build momentum.
Every program will host five home games and travel for five away contests, ensuring an even distribution of matches that tests both domestic and visiting performances.
All home matches will be streamed live on MW+, the conference's newly launched subscription platform, granting fans unprecedented access to the action and expanding the league's digital footprint.
The 2026 lineup includes Air Force, Colorado College, Grand Canyon, Hawai'i, Nevada, New Mexico, San José State, UC Davis, UNLV, UTEP, and Wyoming, each bringing distinct playing styles and fan bases to the schedule.
Conference officials say the schedule reflects a strategic effort to grow the sport within the region, leveraging the platform's reach to attract new audiences, sponsors, and media partners.
With the fixtures now public, coaches and players are turning their focus to preparation, hoping to translate the announced matchups into on‑field success and ultimately contend for the championship title.
