It’s Official: Our Bid Is In

Posted On May 13, 2010 by PUSC

Tomorrow, the USA Bid Committee will deliver our Bid Book to FIFA. We’re another step closer to earning the honor of hosting the World Cup!

This Bid is our story — the story of all fans whose passion for the game courses through our country: the busy mom coaching her kid’s soccer team; the lifelong fans who brought their love for soccer from other nations; the weekend warriors who play in city parks and parking lots.

The Bid Committee has created a new video telling this story. They’ve traveled to communities across the country, speaking with players and fans of every kind, capturing what soccer really means to the American people. Take a look at the video and pass it to everyone you know:

I’m excited about the USA Bid effort because I’ve seen soccer come such a long way in the United States since I first set foot on the pitch more than 30 years ago.

Soccer is America’s game — the perfect sport to match our nation’s diversity, creativity, and cooperation. And now, with your help, we can bring the game’s greatest tournament back to America, and welcome the world.

Watch this great new video and share it around:
