The North Carolina Courage has announced its schedule for the 2025 National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) regular season. The team will start their campaign with an away match against Racing Louisville at Lynn Family Stadium on Saturday, March 15, with a kickoff scheduled for 5 p.m. ET.

The home opener for the Courage will take place at First Horizon Stadium at WakeMed Soccer Park on Saturday, March 22, where they will face the Seattle Reign at 7 p.m. ET.

A notable fixture in the schedule is the match against Orlando Pride, winners of the 2024 NWSL Shield and Championship. This game is set for Saturday, May 10, at 7:30 p.m. ET and will be one of ten Courage matches broadcasted on ION network owned by Scripps.

The Courage will feature in a CBS national broadcast when they host Angel City on Saturday, September 13. Last year’s encounter between these teams ended dramatically with Olivia Wingate scoring a stoppage-time equalizer to maintain a long-standing home unbeaten streak.

In total, ten matches involving the Courage will be televised on ION and CBS national broadcasts. Two additional matches can be streamed live via Amazon Prime Video. A game against San Diego Wave FC on Sunday, May 25, will air on CBS Sports Network. All other games not covered by these broadcasters will be available through NWSL+ platform streaming.

Due to summer international tournaments in July, there are no scheduled league matches during this period. However, exhibition games featuring the Courage are expected to be announced later. The regular season resumes for them with a home match against San Diego Wave on Saturday, August 2.

For their final regular season game, North Carolina Courage hosts Gotham FC on Sunday, November 2. The kickoff time remains undetermined as it is currently under national broadcast hold.

Season tickets for fans interested in attending Courage's games are already available for purchase.
