U.S. Soccer announces detailed plans to implement Yates recommendations

Today, the U.S. Soccer Federation released an update that included details on their plans to implement 12 recommendations that came out of the Sally Yates investigation into abuse allegations in the NWSL. When those allegations put the NWSL in the public eye for the wrong reasons, U.S. Soccer hired King & Spaulding to investigate any wrongdoings in North America's top women’s professional league.

Former U.S. Attorney General, Sally Yates, led the investigation, which concluded with a 319-page report and twelve recommendations for the Federation to clean up the sport on all levels.
