Emerald City Supporters FC are happy to announce that their annual series of supporters' matches against Timbers Army FC are set to take place in Portland on the weekend of August 23rd, 2014, which is the day before the Sounders take on the Timbers at Providence Park.
Timbers Army FC will host the 2014 event at Buckman Field in Portland. The men’s second teams and women’s teams will play concurrently on the two fields at 4:00 PM, and the men’s first teams will play in a standalone match at 6:00 PM.
Since 2010, the recreational amateur sporting clubs of these two supporters groups have faced off in annual games coinciding with a Sounders vs Timbers match on the same weekend and rotating between host cities each year. What began as a single match between the two groups in March of 2010 has grown to include men’s second team matches starting in 2012 and now will also include a women’s match, new for the 2014 edition. Though the teams are composed solely of recreational soccer players, both supporters groups view these matches with utmost importance as they are playing not only for the pride of their home cities but also for the honor of their fellow supporters. Underlining this importance, the winner of the men’s first team match will hoist the champions’ trophy which was introduced in 2013.
ECS FC has not lost a match to Timbers Army FC since 2010, going 4-1-1 in the entire series. In the 2013 matches hosted in Seattle, the first and second ECS FC teams beat TAFC by the combined score of 11-1, and the results were triumphantly displayed at CenturyLink Field before the MLS match the next day.
ECS FC would like to extend an invitation to all Sounders who wish to come down early for the weekend to support Seattle soccer in the lead-in to the Cascadia Cup match. In 2012, we had a sizable and boisterous contingent of ECS FC fans who outnumbered Timbers Army fans in their own backyard, and whose support rallied the teams made the matches extremely special for our players. We are expecting even stronger traveling support in 2014.
