UC, Nippert Hosting Cincinnati’s Professional Soccer Team FC Cincinnati

Professional soccer, or futbol if you prefer, is coming to the city of Cincinnati and UC will be hosting the team’s first season at Nippert Stadium.

The team will take the field in spring 2016.

An official announcement is scheduled for Wednesday, after which tickets will go on sale. They will range from $50 for students up to $595 for club seats.

The team will play at Nippert Stadium, the University of Cincinnati’s newly renovated, 40,000 seat football stadium, a source told The Enquirer.

Whether you’re a fan of soccer or not (if you call it “soccer”, chances are you’re not), this is an excellent business decision for the University of Cincinnati.
