Ballard FC today announced the full 2024 USL League Two season schedule. Season tickets and single-game tickets are available at the link below. The team will host eight matches at Seattle’s Memorial Stadium, including seven regular season matches starting with the home opener against Midlakes United from Bellevue on Friday May 24th. One additional friendly will be announced in the coming weeks to round out the eight game home schedule.
Last season, Ballard FC won the USL2 National Championship and will look to defend their title this season at Memorial Stadium.
“Everything is shaping up for this to be another incredible season”, said Ballard FC Co-Founder and President, Sam Zisette. “With over 1,000 season ticket holders already, there is a significant level of excitement around our championship-defending season. We’re also thrilled about the opportunity to be one of the last groups to play at historic Memorial Stadium before it changes forever. Our roster is looking strong and we’re confident we have another championship-caliber program.”
The seven game league schedule features three Friday night matches, a fan-favorite from last season, as well as two Sunday afternoon matches. Three Saturday matches round out the schedule, giving fans a great variety of dates and times to venture to Memorial Stadium this summer.
The newcomers from Bellevue, Midlakes United, come to Ballard for the league opener on Friday May 24th before intercity rivals West Seattle Junction FC on Saturday June 1st. The Tacoma Stars take the trip north on Saturday June 8th followed by the rebranded FC Olympia on Sunday June June 23rd. Capital FC, 2022 divisional champs, come up from Salem on Sunday June 30th before Lane United visits Memorial Stadium on Saturday July 6th. Finally, United PDX wrap up the regular season at Interbay Stadium on Friday July 12th.
