US women counter soccer federation's assertions on pay
U.S. Soccer was misleading when it asserted some players for the women's national team made more money than their male counterparts, the women's team players said in court documents filed Monday.
The players say in the documents that the men's pay would have been far greater if they'd had the same success on the field as the women.
The filing was a response to a U.S. Soccer motion opposing the players' request to certify a lawsuit seeking equitable pay as a class-action. The women asked a court last month to include all players called up to the national team, which could increase the class to more than 50 players.
Twenty-eight players were part of the original suit filed against U.S. Soccer in March alleging institutionalized gender discrimination that includes inequitable compensation between the men's and women's teams. A May 5 trial date has been set in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles.
