Has Bev Priestman or the CSA finalized the roster for the W.C. or is it too early yet.

So the CSA announced monetary cuts to our Women National Team as it prepares for the World Cup.  It does not make sense, but then it is the CSA.

[The Ref]

If Canada Women refuse to play at the WC next July creating some unbalanced results in the group and the wrath of Fifa it may cause Fifa to rethink giving Canada part of the men's WC in 2026.

Just so we ,  for the WC this summer, have it on the 1st page of this thread for easy reference, here are the times and schedule for the WNT , pasted. Hopefully,  they will " bid their time" until the 2024 Olympics before "retiring" due the despicable treatment by the CSA.  Sorry for the "ET" reference only, but that is probably the easiest for default.

Women's World Cup game times in Canada

Both Australia and New Zealand have time zones which are radically different to Canada. 

Most matches at the 2023 Women's World Cup will take place in the evening which will mean early mornings for those watching from North America. 

The majority of games will take place on Australia's east coast which goes by the Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) time zone and is 14 hours ahead of Eastern Time (ET) time. 

 

New Zealand's time zone is even further ahead of Canada's with a 16-hour time adjustment required.

CONCACAF sending 6 (!) countries to this WC is quite remarkable.  Good for all the countries involved.
