ORLANDO, Fla. – Orlando City Soccer Club announced today a new season-ticket initiative for members of Orlando City Youth Soccer, Central Florida’s largest youth soccer club.  All members of OCYS competitive premier teams will receive a season ticket to the 2012 Orlando City season. 

“We believe it is vitally important in the development of all young players that they get the opportunity to see the professional game played live,” said Phil Rawlins, Owner/President of Orlando City Soccer Club. “Young players can observe the flow of the game, they can follow a player who plays in their same position, they can watch how plays develop and breakdown and learn many key lessons by watching the game at our level. This initiative is all part of commitment to helping grow youth soccer in Central Florida. I am looking forward to seeing hundreds of our young players cheering on their heroes from the stands at the Citrus Bowl.”

All competitive team players in the Junior & Senior Academy premier programs will receive an Orlando City season ticket as part of their registration package.  The season ticket will be valid for all regular season games, one international friendly, and one U.S. Open Cup match. Additional tickets for family members will be available at a discounted rate.

The OCYS season ticket will come on a special youth player ID card and will be scanned at the entrance gate of the Florida Citrus Bowl on game day. The season ticket is not transferable and only good for one scan per game. If lost there will be a $5.00 replacement charge for the card.

The all new OCYS season ticket will be available before the first home game of the season through your Orlando City Youth Soccer Coach.

Youth Soccer players who are not part of the OCYS competitive premier programs are not included in the new ticket package, but are still eligible for a special Youth Soccer season ticket rate of $99.  While it does not include the exclusive ID card, it does include the standard 14 games (12 regular season games, one International Friendly and one U.S. Open Cup game) and is still an amazing value!
