Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC News Release
Colorado Springs, CO - The Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC officially announced their 2017 promotions calendar and home game kickoff times for the 2017 season.
After successful promotional nights during the 2016 season, the Switchbacks have decided to expand on promotional nights for the 2017 season. The Switchbacks have collaborated with over 10 partners to create an exciting and engaging promotions schedule geared towards drawing even larger crowds during the 2017 season.
The promotions schedule features three fireworks nights, a 5-match poster series, '90s Night and more! The poster series will feature 5 matches in which local artists will be designing a different poster for fans to collect.
Fans are encouraged to come dressed up in costumes for Galactic Night (June 3rd) and Superhero Night (August 18). The Switchbacks' 2016 Superhero Night drew one of their largest crowds with over 4,000 in attendance, many of whom came dressed in costume. Fans in attendance on June 3rd will receive a light saber courtesy of Penrose-St. Francis Health Services.
The June 24th fireworks show will give fans a small taste of the much larger fireworks show following the match on July 1st as the Switchbacks kickoff the Independence Day celebrations.
The Switchbacks will also have giveaways at selected matches that include: a Wells Fargo beanie, Pikes Peak Brewing Co hat, POGS, CTU kids backpacks, a TheGazette tote bag and more!
The Switchbacks will finish their home schedule on October 7th against Sacramento Republic FC during Oktoberfest sponsored by Budweiser. This will also be the Switchback's Fan Appreciation Night which was their largest attended match during the 2016 season.
