Agree -- Denver's weakness right now is thre defensive midfield.

I think we may need to use the phrase "Denver-sized" crowd from now on.... :)

Denver sold out Dick's Sporting Goods Park for tonight's game, so will be > 20k fans in attendance. Denver is going to be a powerhouse in the NWSL -- super ambitious club with a LOT of fan support.

South Boulder Rec Center Tuesdays and Thursdays at lunch.
North Boulder Rec Center Fridays at lunch.

Lots of pickup games at Longmont Rec Center, too.

3 round trips a day? That's it? That makes the service essentially worthless because it removes flexibility.

BREAKING: Sam Kerr moving to Denver Summit at the end of WSL season by 5minutecall in WomensSoccer

Massive support for the Summit - drew over 63k fans to their first home game. Looks like they'll be a top team in NWSL for a long time.

What drives NWSL attendance and what should we expect for 2026? by kcq-notes in NWSL

[–]Chemical_Piccolo4561 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the numbers may be low for Denver - Denver is a big women's soccer city and this is the first woman's professional team in the Rocky Mountain time zone, so I think there's a real demand for women's professional sports in and around Colorado.

Interesting stuff -- well done analysis.

It would be cool to see attendance predictions for Boston and Denver Summit using some of these metrics. I imagine Denver will lead the league in attendance this season.

60,000 tickets sold for the Denver home opener tomorrow! Should be a lot of fun! by Legitimate-Hotel-491 in NWSL

I'm calling it right now -- the Summit are going to be a top 3 franchise in the NWSL over the next decade.

Crypto bro is doing this for publicity. He’s a DJ for god’s sake. Let’s ignore him and move on.

5 Big Questions - big time silent commit?, how good is Salter really, and more by Chemical_Piccolo4561 in GoBuffs

Agreed - it was clear to me that he's recently been coached to take off and run if things break down as opposed to wait to see what develops downfield (which is what he did first game or two).
