Chattanooga FC's push to the title continues this week after a resounding 4-0 win over Houston Dutch Lions FC. CFC hosts Miami United FC this Saturday, July 23rd, 7:30pm at Finley Stadium.
This week, Chattanooga FC is trying to get 10,000 fans to "Fort" Finley Stadium to cheer on the team, and they're offering some great deals to make that happen:
* Tickets will be $7 (regular season price) but ONLY until midnight this Wednesday, July 20th, then $10 through Friday.
Tickets will be $12 at the gate on Saturday. Children 6 and under are always free
* ALL 2016 jerseys will get fans in for free. Men's and Women's, home, away, and goalkeeper jerseys will work, but NOT season pass wristbands. All we ask in return: BRING SOMEONE NEW. Help us spread the joy that comes from seeing a full Finley stadium cheer on the lads!
"Soccer is one of the few sports where the fans REALLY make a difference on the pitch" said Sean McDaniel, GM of Chattanooga FC. "The bigger the crowd, the better of a home field advantage we have. We would love to have 10,000 fans here on Saturday. Miami United FC is a very strong team. It's going to be a great test for us, and we think we're up for the challenge."
Chattanooga FC Midfielder Luis Trude agrees. "If only the fans knew how important they are for us when we are playing...They give us that extra energy to keep going, that extra step to win the ball, that extra push to score a goal. They are our 12th player, and we'll need them
this Saturday as big and loud as it can be. The fans will make the difference again."
