The defending champions are the Chicago Red Stars who were the first professional team to enter, and win, the competition. They did not attempt to defend their title, participating in the inaugural season of the National Women's Soccer League instead. They were members of WPSL Elite during the 2012 edition of the Women's Cup.

The four teams participating in the Open Bracket of the 2013 National Women's Championships were the Des Moines Menace, Kansas City Shock, Houston Aces, and Kansas City Dynamos,[2] the competition format being a round-robin as opposed to the previous used semifinals-to-final. The Houston Aces emerged as champions, winning all three of their matches, with the Kansas City Dynamos as runners-up.

gollark: However, this does not actually stop multiple people having the same nick, which is no.
gollark: Basically, osmarksunnecessaryIRCserver™ receives connections from clients, for purposes. They are not actually considered registered until they set a nickname. So I currently have it loop and receive messages until it gets `NICK bees` or whatever, at which point it sends the welcome messages, write-locks the global state struct™, writes in the new client connection, and adds the nick to the in-use map.
gollark: Yes, but that would be annoying.
gollark: Hmm. It looks like I need software transactional memory or something, but ææææææ there are not really any good libraries for that?
