Jaedyn Shaw's Journey to Triumph

A New Chapter Opens in North Carolina

In a bold move that sent shockwaves through the NWSL, forward Jaedyn Shaw has traded her San Diego Wave jersey for the iconic purple of the North Carolina Courage.

The 20-year-old sensation had long desired a change, and now, she's ready to ignite the Courage attack.

A Blow to San Diego's Ambitions

Shaw's departure leaves a void in the Wave's lineup, especially under the guidance of newly appointed head coach Jonas Eidevall.

But as one door closes, another one opens. North Carolina coach Sean Nahas is eager to welcome Shaw's "explosive skill and commitment to winning."

Bolstering the Courage's Attack

With Kerolin Fernandes also returning from injury, the Courage's offense is shaping up to be a formidable force.

Shaw's pace and clinical finishing will add a much-needed spark to a team hungry for more firepower.

A Rising Star on the International Stage

Shaw's impact has extended beyond the NWSL. With the U.S. Women's National Team, she has displayed her incredible talent, scoring goals and making a lasting impression.

"Jaedyn is a player who has the potential to be one of the best in the world," said U.S. coach Vlatko Andonovski.

A Promise of Brilliance

As she embarks on this new challenge, Shaw is determined to leave her mark on the Courage franchise and continue her rise to the very top.

"I'm excited to see what she can achieve in a North Carolina uniform," said Courage owner Steve Malik. "She's a player who has all the ingredients to become a legend."
