Ballard FC First Round Open Cup Match
The oldest competition in American soccer is coming to Ballard! For the second year in a row, Ballard FC is hosting Spokane Velocity in the Open Cup. As an amateur team, Ballard FC had to qualify for the cup through their 2024 league standings. Spokane Velocity, like all fully professional teams, automatically qualified. After losing 1-0 to Spokane last year, Ballard FC will be looking for a "cupset" revenge. If you want to read more about the match: https://bit.ly/3FqTobu
