On Friday, July 17th, the USL Championship will recommence behind closed doors with New York Red Bulls II’s long-awaited return to play against Hartford Athletic. This game will provide a bright spot for many soccer fans, who have been eagerly anticipating the return of professional soccer, and – with it – a slight sense of normalcy.
Red Bulls Pre-Academy players have been looking forward to this game more than most, however. When the NYRB II players take to the field, they will be wearing customized jerseys which feature the names of Red Bulls youth players embroidered into the very fabric of their uniform.
