Sporting JAX, the group bringing professional men’s and women’s USL soccer to Northeast Florida, will host six “Summer of Soccer” watch parties across the First Coast community. Fans are invited to cheer on their favorite teams during the UEFA Women’s and Men’s Champions League Finals and the U.S. Men’s National Team during the Copa America games. Each event will feature food and drink specials, merchandise raffles and opportunities to win additional prizes.

The watch parties will be held at various Northeast Florida venues.

“We had a tremendous response from Northeast Florida soccer fans and players of all ages during our spring watch parties, and we want to continue that excitement into the summer months,” said Steve Livingstone, president and CEO of Sporting JAX. “Our ‘Summer of Soccer’ events are a part of our commitment to bring the soccer community together to cheer their favorite teams to victory and celebrate and elevate the beautiful game.”
