The Empire Strykers lost their first game against the Chihuahua Savage. MASL (Major Arena Soccer League) at the Toyota Arena in Ontario, California makes me feel like I'm watching a hockey game. The best part is, it's not actually hockey, it's my favorite sport. Not that hockey isn't amazing. Hockey is awesome and I love to watch the sport but I deeply understand soccer and have been raised watching and playing soccer all of my life.
My dad's team I grew up watching every single Sunday of my childhood is still immersed in the world of soccer. Some of them have become refs. All of them have unique paths they've traveled in life that have lead them to be who they are today. I love them so I understand what it might be like for some of the kids I see on the sidelines of their mom or dad's games building friendships with one another that will last at least a lifetime.
This is the type of environment that exists with the Empire Strykers team.
