In conjunction with U.S. Soccer, MAPFRE Stadium today announced that the United States Women's National Team is slated to hold an open training session at America's first soccer-specific stadium on Wednesday, Sept. 14. Open to both the media and the general public, the session takes place one day before the USWNT hosts Thailand in an international friendly at MAPFRE Stadium.
TICKETS: USWNT vs. Thailand
The general public may enter Gate 4 beginning at 6 p.m. ET. The session is estimated to run from 6:30-8 p.m. ET. Crew SC Season Ticket Members can show their membership card for early entry to MAPFRE Stadium at Gate 4 at 5:45 p.m. ET.
The general public may park for free in MAPFRE Stadium's south lots. Upon entry to the facility, the general public is encouraged to head to MAPFRE Stadium sections 106-110 for viewing of the training session.
MAPFRE Stadium has played host to six United States Women's National Team matches all-time, with the Stars & Stripes holding a record of 4-1-1 at the venue, including a 3-0 victory by the USWNT over North Korea in the Group Stage of the 2003 FIFA Women's World Cup. Winners of the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup, the USWNT last played at MAPFRE Stadium on October 30, 2013 in a friendly against New Zealand.
The USA is 16-0-3 in 2016 and working on a run that would mark just the third time in the team’s history that it went unbeaten in regulation time during a calendar year in which it played at least 10 matches. The USA fell in penalty kicks to Sweden in the quarterfinals of the 2016 Olympics.
