Soccer so foundational to her life, Lara Murphy is putting her skills and money into Calgary’s team in the startup women’s professional Northern Super League.

The co-owner of the only female-run commercial construction company in Calgary was named chief executive officer of Wild FC on Wednesday.

Calgary has one of six teams in the new NSL, slated to start in April 2025 alongside clubs in Halifax, Montreal, Toronto, Ottawa and Vancouver.

Wild FC is expected to announce its first player signing and a “celebrity investor” on Friday.

Murphy, who was born and raised in Saint John, N.B., has lived in Calgary for 19 years.

“Being a soccer player myself, growing up in New Brunswick, and really just understanding the impact that soccer as a sport and the community had on me in my life, I couldn’t dream this opportunity to support women in sports at a professional level,” Murphy said.

“It’s a full-circle moment.”
