Saturday, May 1st Washington Freedom and D.C. United match is sponsored by The Century Council!

The Century Council, official corporate sponsor of Washington Freedom and D.C. United, is the title night sponsor for the doubleheader on Saturday, May 1st. The doubleheader, at RFK Stadium, starts at 4:00pm with D.C. United playing the first game and the Washington Freedom game to follow.

The Century Council will be there to promote Ask, Listen, Learn prior to the game and hand out cheer sticks as kids enter the stadium. The Ask, Listen, Learn program, along with its Super Stars, remind kids to “say ‘YES’ to a healthy lifestyle and ‘NO’ to underage drinking.” At www.asklistenlearn.com, kids can become members of the Ask, Listen, Learn Team by taking a pledge to make healthy choices. An Ask, Listen, Learn booth will be set up prior to the start of the D.C. United Game in the Volkswagen Garage at RFK. Here kids can collect prizes and also play the new Ask, Listen, Learn interactive activity. Literature will also be provided to parents on the importance of starting the discussion early about the dangers of underage drinking.

Please come join us at the VW garage prior to the start of the game and cheer on D.C. United and Washington Freedom to victory! Kids, you can also meet outside section 127 at the 75th minute of the Washington Freedom game and you will be escorted down to the field to get an autograph from your favorite DC Freedom soccer star. Only the first 20 kids will be able to get autographs so be early! Hope to see you there!!
