Lua error in Module:Infobox at line 199: malformed pattern (missing ']'). The NWSL Challenge Cup, currently known as the UKG NWSL Challenge Cup for sponsorship reasons,[1] is an annual tournament organized by the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL), the top-tier women's league in the United States soccer league system. The tournament is open to all NWSL teams.

The NWSL Challenge Cup was first held in 2020 as a one-off tournament to mark the league's return to action from the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] It was the first top-tier professional sports league in the United States to restart after COVID-19 lockdowns began.[3] Subsequently, the NWSL announced that it would return as an annual league cup competition.[4] The current (2022) holders are the North Carolina Courage.
