We are just catching our breath now, after a busy last week.  It began with Valour season tickets going on sale on Monday and culminated on Friday with a hard fought trialist battle on a cold blustery Winnipeg evening.  It was hard not to imagine for a moment that April was here, as we cheered the boys on from the stands.

Living in Southern Ontario, a two-hour road trip delivered me to several TFC and Canadian National team games each year. I was also within a six-hour drive of two NWSL cities, so I was able to see the Portland Thorns play live four to five times a […]
