As I reported (sorry, I guess that might sound a bit self-serving) earlier tonight, at least half a dozen Major League Soccer teams and likely more are firming up plans to return or come to the Valley for preseason training early next year.
↵This is good. With no high-level soccer in the state, getting MLS teams here for a couple of weeks only puts AZ on the American soccer map, even if this is, as one person put it, a “no-mans land” for soccer.
↵The weather is great, the space and fields are plentiful and the restaurants are everywhere. Why not come here? Baseball teams do. Helps our lagging economy, too.
