Soccer with the Hartford Athletic: More than a Game, a Movement

The world goes crazy for soccer, and in 2019, Connecticut launched its new team in the game. The first time the Hartford Athletic took the field, 11,000 cheering fans roared their approval. Then, in the first match at their new home, Dillon Stadium, the team played before a sold-out crowd—even though the venue’s renovations were still under way!

The Hartford Athletic is here to turn a community into a movement: passionate, positive and united. Head coach Jimmy Nielsen has come from the Oklahoma City Energy Football Club to lead the charge. One of the goals the team is here to achieve: creating opportunities for Connecticut youth.

So put on your blue-and-green pride and watch world-class action!
