Toronto Tempo 2026 Team Overview
The Toronto Tempo are the WNBA’s 16th franchise and the league’s first team based outside the United States, officially announced on May 23, 2024. Owned by Kilmer Sports Ventures — led by billionaire Larry Tanenbaum, with notable co-owners including Serena Williams, Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, and Lilly Singh — the Tempo represent a landmark moment for women’s basketball in Canada. Head coach Sandy Brondello, a two-time WNBA Champion who led the New York Liberty to the 2024 title, brings elite championship experience to the expansion franchise. General Manager Monica Wright Rogers, a two-time champion as a player and former assistant GM of the Phoenix Mercury, rounds out an accomplished front office. The Tempo’s primary home is Coca-Cola Coliseum in Toronto, but in a nod to their national identity, the team will also play home games at Scotiabank Arena (Toronto), Bell Centre (Montreal), and Rogers Arena (Vancouver). Key matchups include two home-and-away series against fellow expansion team Portland Fire, a FIBA break from August 30 through September 17, and a star-studded home schedule featuring the Las Vegas Aces, New York Liberty, and Indiana Fever.
