The 2025 season was the thirteenth for Seattle Reign FC, a professional women's soccer team based in Seattle, Washington, United States. It was their thirteenth season in the National Women's Soccer League (NWSL), the top division of women's soccer in the United States.
The Reign spent eight weeks away from their home stadium, Lumen Field, due to the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup and a league-wide break in the regular season. The team returned to Lumen Field in July for a friendly against the Urawa Red Diamonds.[1]
