Pro Soccer: Name the Team Contest Announced
September 30th, 2008 by cstarkGot any ideas for a name for the new
professional soccer team that’s coming to Bremerton? The United
Soccer Leagues Professional Developmental League franchise, owned
by Robin Waite, is scheduled to open in the spring of 2009. Here’s
a press release the team sent out to area media today:
Bremerton, Wash.
– Today, a new, professional
soccer club is born in Kitsap County, Wash. Located primarily
across Puget Sound from downtown Seattle, Kitsap is home to over
300,000 residents. The new franchise will be the first-ever, fully
professional soccer team to call Kitsap its home – and most likely
the first-ever fully professional sports franchise based on the
peninsula itself.
“The franchise has been approved by the USL
commissioner and we have secured a fantastic home at Bremerton HS
Memorial Stadium. What we need now is for the people of Kitsap help
us name our team,” said owner Robin Waite. “This is only the first
step of many – team name, team colors, sponsors, suppliers… It’s a
very long list – but this is indeed a very exciting time for all of
us in Kitsap.”
To submit entries, please log on to www.kitsapsoccerclub.com now. The club will
accept submissions until midnight Oct. 25, 2008.
