Soccer

International soccer is making it's way once again to the Motor City.  It has been announced that a game will be played at Comerica Park in Detroit.

In the era of shoulder pads, New Coke, Blockbuster Video, Miami Vice and Nintendo, Wings Stadium had an indoor soccer team named the Kalamazoo Kangaroos.

The Kalamazoo FC Soccer Team is dedicating their final game of the season to the family of the teen killed in the Kalamazoo shootings in February.

Last week it was announced that a Major League Soccer team could be coming to Detroit.  If and when a team finally comes to Detroit, what would be a good name for that team?

Yesterday I posted a story about soccer possibly making it's return to Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor.  Today it is official according to Detroit Free Press,  Real Madrid and Chelsea will play in Ann Arbor on July 30th.

According to the Detroit Free Press story, there is talk of Michigan Stadium in Ann Arbor hosting another international Soccer match.

I don't remember the last time that I watched a full Major League Soccer game.  If the league keeps scoring goals like the one that was scored recently by San Jose,  I may have to watch more games.

I have always been a fan of Soccer.  One of the more interesting part of the game is the free kicks and how teams execute them.  SB Nation posted a clip of how a High School in Japan set up a kick.

According to a release, The National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) is proud to announce that an expansion team located in Kalamazoo, Michigan will begin play in 2016.
The release goes on to say the team will be led by Mike Garrett, founder of SoccerZone and owner of Back of the Net Sports...

According To US Soccer, the USA Men's National Team will play a 2018 FIFA World Cup qualifier in Columbus, Ohio on March 29th.
