(Seattle, WA) – The Seattle Sounders, reigning United Soccer Leagues (USL) First Division Champions, today announced give-away items will be handed out at every home game over the course of the 2006 season at Qwest Field.
“In an effort to provide a better atmosphere, and an increased game-day environment for our fans, we will give away items at each home game,” said Sounders assistant general manager Bart Wiley.
