Brianna Pinto is 20 years old, on the verge of breaking into the WNT senior player pool, and is looking to shake up the status quo. Not necessarily on the field - although she could certainly do that as a brilliant midfielder who was named young player of the year in 2019. What Pinto wants right now is to break into the governance of US Soccer, so that she and other young athletes like her can have a say in how the federation treats them.
US Soccer’s governance is made up of a board of directors and a national council.
