The Philadelphia Independence will play five matches on Fox Soccer Channel this season, beginning with a game in Boston on April 18.

The Independence have a packed preseason schedule including an autograph session on March 11 and a March 20 match against University of North Carolina. We will keep you up to date on other Independence events as they approach. On a brief aside, it seems strange that the autograph session is four days before the roster is trimmed from 28 to 24. I guess at least four signatures will quickly become collector’s items.
