Pick A Seat Day

I'm going. The ticket reps sent an email that said the event starts at 11:00 a.m. Saturday morning at Toyota Park. The round-robin play begins at 3:30 at the Barrington Field House between the Red Stars, Purdue and Northwestern. So I'm going to Toyota Park for the "pick a seat" thing, then head over to Barrington.

 

Agree. It was a nice event. Red Stars staff and players are first class when it comes to their fans. And Peter and Marcia always have time to talk some soccer or answer a question or two. I was glad to see many fans who also are Fire ticket holders at the pick your seat event.
The round-robin with Northwestern and Purdue was a nice showing. I was pretty impressed with Purdue. Man, that field house in Barrington is huge. The field seemed bigger than most soccer fields I've played on or even seen. I would have ran out of gas after one run down field. Red Stars looked Ok. Not much really to tell after just a few days of getting together as a team. Once the Nats players get back from Portugal and the foreign players come in who were not there (I assume some had Nats commitments of their own and maybe visas) and after a week or two of practice and scrimmage together, we should get a better read on this team.
There were a few players that stood out to me, Marian Dalmy looked solid, Tina Estrada scored a couple of goals and I really liked Sarah Wagenfuhr on defense. Ella Masar and Danesha Adams put a few good combinations together.
The veiwing by the public was way above the field and without numbers it was a little difficult to identify everyone, especially with the size of the place and a black netting around the field which you had to look through.
All in all it was a fun day.

 

Any one know when the season tickets will be sent? I wasn't able to go to pick a seat day...I don't know if I need to contact the team or not.

Thanks!

 

I wasn't able to go either but they called me and I selected my seats. They should mail them out soon.I'm surprised you weren't called.
