Women’s professional sports just dropped another mic moment, and the Golden State Valkyries are leading the charge.
In a groundbreaking financial milestone, the Valkyries have officially become the first women’s sports franchise to hit the jaw-dropping $500 million valuation mark. According to Sportico’s latest report, these basketball queens aren’t just playing the game – they’re rewriting the entire playbook.
Breaking Financial Barriers
With a revenue projected at $70 million this year, the Valkyries are proving that women’s sports aren’t just a niche market – they’re a lucrative powerhouse. Every single home game has been sold out, and their courtside tickets are commanding a cool $1,500, putting them toe-to-toe with NBA pricing.
Beyond the Numbers
What’s even more impressive? Only 4 percent of their season ticket holders overlap with Golden State Warriors fans, which means they’re cultivating an entirely new audience. This isn’t just about basketball – it’s about creating a cultural moment that celebrates women’s athletic excellence.
A New Era of Sports
The Valkyries aren’t just breaking records; they’re shattering expectations and demanding the recognition women athletes have long deserved. Their $500 million valuation isn’t just a number – it’s a statement that women’s sports are here, they’re powerful, and they’re not going anywhere.
