Texas Pro Soccer Festival
Coming to San Antonio, TX (actually 20 miles northeast in Cibolo), March 3rd - 9th, the first annual Texas Pro Soccer Festival.
The first Texas Pro Soccer Festival presented by Touch-Tel will feature four Major League Soccer teams, including the two-time MLS champion Houston Dynamo, during an electrifying week of double-header exhibition games, events and daily practices, officials announced. Besides the Dynamo, other MLS teams coming to the greater San Antonio area for the first time ever include D.C. United, Toronto FC and Chivas USA. The festival’s games will be held March 5 through 9 at Steele High School in Cibolo, while daily practices opened to area soccer fans are scheduled for the Soccer International facility (formerly Pepsi Soccer, Texas) in Schertz.
Wednesday, March 5
+ D.C. United vs. Chivas USA - 6 p.m.
+ Houston Dynamo vs. Toronto FC – 8:30 p.m.
Friday, March 7
+ Toronto FC vs. D.C. United – 6 p.m.
+ Chivas USA vs. Houston Dynamo – 8:30 p.m.
Sunday, March 9
+ Houston Dynamo vs. D.C. United – 12:30 p.m.
+ Chivas USA vs. Toronto FC – 2:30 p.m.
Looks like a good time, despite the glaring absence of FC Dallas. I wonder if the Aztex USL-1 team could get in on the second annual Texas Pro Soccer Festival?

Yeah, the Frisco candystripers might come to this event in 2009. This year, it's only for MLS teams. They should try to outdraw Dynamo supporters at their own little pizza box first, then they can be considered for tournaments like this one.

LOL to that last anonymous post. Very brave, Dynamo fan.
Don't be jealous of Pizza Hut Park. You'll have your own field, someday. It's just too bad it has to be in Houston, instead of somewhere nice.
P.S. Too bad about that Pan-Pacific Championship. Better luck next time. ;-)
