The Seattle Reign announced a contract extension Tuesday with head coach Laura Harvey through the 2028 NWSL season.

The winningest coach in league history with 113 regular-season victories, Harvey has led Seattle to three NWSL Shields and three NWSL championship games.

"Laura sets the competitive standard for our entire program," general manager Lesle Gallimore said. "She elevates players with intention and leads with clarity and consistency. This extension allows us to continue building with confidence, knowing we have one of the most respected and accomplished coaches in the world guiding our sporting vision."

Harvey, 45, has been with the Reign since the inaugural NWSL season in 2013.

Harvey was the first coach to reach 100 victories. She is also the longest-tenured head coach in league history and a three-time NWSL Coach of the Year (2014, 2015, 2021), the most of any coach since the league's inaugural season in 2013.

"I'm incredibly grateful for the opportunity and trust the club has placed in me," Harvey said. "The progress we made in 2025 speaks to the work our players and staff put in every day. Our priority is continuing to grow our talent pool, playing with a clear identity and putting a product on the field that reflects who we are as a club and as a city."

During her tenure, 17 Reign players have combined for 34 NWSL Best XI selections.
