The Portland Thorns and future Portland WNBA team have a new home.

The Portland Thorns of the National Women's Soccer League and the city's as-yet unnamed WNBA team will train together at a new performance center in a first-of-its-kind alliance between teams from both leagues.

The Bhathal family, which owns the Thorns and the new WNBA expansion team in Portland, plans to spend $150 million or more on a dual-team campus.

Led by RAJ Sports, Portland is building the first-ever dual-sport women's performance complex to house the city’s NWSL and WNBA teams.

The first-of-its-kind women's sports facility would serve both the Portland Thorns FC and Portland's new WNBA franchise with a 12-acre performance center.

NWSL's Portland Thorns and Portland's new WNBA team will share a $150 million training facility, the first of its kind between the leagues.

A state-of-the-art facility and a first-of-its-kind, the Thorns and Portland's future WNBA team are expected to open a joint practice facility by early 2026, owners and operators RAJ Sports announced Thursday.
