You're listening to the MIB Media Network, and this is the women's game.

What an intro.

Boston!

I love you.

Live and sold out at the House of Blues.

I'm Sam U.S., and this is the women's game live in Boston.

I am from right here in Massachusetts,

which makes it even more special to be here with you all tonight,

celebrating the past, present, and future of women's soccer here in Boston.

Thank you all so much for coming. My parents

who are there in the back, they've seen me play soccer in a lot of different venues all around

the world, but I don't know if they ever imagine me selling out the house of blues. Little do they

know I've been taking adult drum lessons for three years, and I'm ready for my moment.

This amazing show is presented by our incredible friends at New Balance, Boston's finest, who are doing so much within the sport of soccer, from working with the greatest athletes like the Kansas City Current's Michelle Cooper and Seattle Res Jordan Haidema to engineering their cleats

with innovative materials for superior comfort and support. Whether it's the Furons, Tekela's,

or 4-4-2s, make sure to get a pair for next season. Being from Boston, I love being able to work

with New Balance, and I can't wait to dive into the incredible history and future of women's soccer

here in Boston.

Thank you all so much.

Women's soccer has a storied history here in Boston.

The very first women's professional soccer league in the United States, the WUSA,

launched with the original Boston Breakers in 2001.
