Emma Hayes spoke with the media on Friday in her first press conference since taking the head coach position with the USWNT.

Named the U.S. coach in November, Hayes joined the squad in Colorado after finishing up her final season as coach of Chelsea. Together, they are trying to quickly get up to speed ahead of the Paris Games later this summer as they try to earn a fifth Olympic gold medal.

Hayes' tenure opens with a friendly against South Korea on Saturday in Commerce City, Colorado. The USWNT will meet the Koreans again on 4 June in St. Paul, Minnesota. These matches give Hayes an up-close look at players before she names the roster for the Olympics.

The U.S. women’s team has captured four Olympic gold medals (1996, 2004, 2008, 2012), one silver (2000) and one bronze (Tokyo in 2021).
