Does Portland Timbers have a women's team?

MLS teams and women's professional soccer have varying levels of connection. Some MLS ownership groups also own NWSL franchises, sharing facilities, staff, and brand identity. Others have separate women's teams at lower levels.

Portland Timbers's relationship with women's soccer reflects the broader trend of integration between men's and women's professional soccer in North America. The NWSL has grown significantly alongside MLS, and cross-ownership is becoming increasingly common.
