Today, the Carolina RailHawks announced that it has expanded its Youth Soccer Club Partnership agreement with the Capital Area Soccer League (“CASL”) to include a new, exclusive seating section for all CASL members in return for a substantial, guaranteed ticket purchase commitment by CASL for the 2013-2015 seasons.  As part of this expanded deal, the three center sections above the terrace of the newly constructed east stands (sections 502, 503 and 504) will be offered exclusively to CASL members and will be named the “CASL Tower.”  CASL members will receive special discounted ticket prices in those sections.

“We are delighted to continue to grow our relationship with CASL, and look forward to signing similar arrangements with other local youth soccer clubs.  We appreciate CASL’s leadership in supporting this new initiative, as well as their recognition that a strong professional soccer team in the Triangle is good for the overall development of the game in the area,” said RailHawks Senior Vice President, Peter Sciandra.

“This is another significant and positive step in the building process of professional soccer in this community.  This expanded relationship and others like it will help drive increased attendance for the RailHawks in 2013 and beyond, while creating a special dedicated space for CASL members to gather, share and enjoy RailHawks games,” said RailHawks President, Curt Johnson.

“I have always believed that watching live professional soccer matches is an important part of the development of a youth soccer player, and I am delighted that we can create an attractive, branded space in the new east stands of the New WakeMed Soccer Park for all of our CASL players and members to gather and enjoy high-quality RailHawks professional soccer at extremely affordable prices,” said Charlie Slagle, CEO of CASL.

After a recent exciting semifinal run in the 2012 playoffs, the RailHawks will begin the new 2013 NASL Season in March at the New WakeMed Soccer Park.  Information about how to purchase tickets in the new CASL Tower will be released soon.  Season Tickets and Flex Plans for the 2013 season are on sale now.  In order to guarantee your seat for all 2013 RailHawks home matches, and to receive an invitation to the RailHawks Holiday Party, sign up before October 29th.  For more information on 2013 RailHawks ticket packages, call the Cruizers Box Office at 919-459-8144 or visit www.CarolinaRailHawks.com/STH.
