Season Ticket books to be mailed out to fans after Sunday's Fan Fest event cancellation due to snow

Due to accummulating snow at the Maryland Soccerplex (4 inches), the Freedom's annual Fan Fest event and subsequent exhibition game against the Boston Breakers were regrettably cancelled on Sunday. We made every attempt to post the cancellations on our website and on our phone message lines to alert our fans, as well as get a "Freedom Flyer" e-newsletter out to our fans as fast as possible on such short notice. We apologize for the inconvenience.

The season tickets will be mailed out to fans this week. Enclosed will be a card for you to come to Customer Service (behind section 314) to pick up your season ticket gift. Thank you for your continued support of the Washington Freedom and we look forward to seeing you at our home opener on Saturday, April 12 vs New York at 7 p.m.!
