I've written before about how fun a Boston Breakers, our women's professional soccer team, game can be. Well, last fall, while I was enjoying said games, I decided I needed to up my support of the team with season tickets. Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm a big sports fan, and I especially love women's sports. I love that the little girls in my class can dream of being professional athletes. When I was in 4th grade there were no professional women's teams and very few female athletes to watch on tv. Having seen a former student of mine have that dream and grow up to make it a reality proves just how important these leagues are.
The first home game of the season was on a beautiful spring day towards the end of April. The breakers play at Jordan Field near the Harvard football stadium, a short walk from Harvard Square. JO and I walked over, found our seats, and settled in for a fun night of soccer. The team looked like it had a lot of potential, with number 1 draft pick Rose LaValle, and some new international players, including Canadian Adriana Leon and Australian Rosie White. We ended up winning the game, which was an added bonus! Again, I can't say enough good things about attending a Breakers game! The league features the best players in the world, tickets are inexpensive, and if you have kids autograph alley never disappoints! After just one game, I was thrilled I had decided last fall to get season tickets!
