The Orlando Pride has announced the debut of “Summer Break presented by Orlando Pride,” a new slate of community-focused events taking place throughout Central Florida during the National Women’s Soccer League’s (NWSL) midseason hiatus.
Running through the end of July, the initiative aims to keep fans engaged, promote community involvement, and maintain momentum as the team prepares for its return to NWSL play on Sunday, August 3, when the Pride take on the Utah Royals during Florida Night presented by Heineken at Inter&Co Stadium.
“We’re thrilled to launch our first-ever Summer Break series and provide our fans with additional ways to stay connected to each other and the Club during this midseason pause,” said Pedro Araujo, Orlando Pride Chief Marketing Officer. “From soccer clinics and theme park adventures to happy hours and exclusive season ticket member events, there’s truly something for everyone to enjoy during this month-long celebration.”
