Best Player of The World Signs with Los Angeles Sol
Tuesday, 13 January 09, 11:32 AM
No, no... I'm not talking about Cristiano Ronaldo coming to play for the Los Angeles Galaxy; that won't happen! I'm talking about the best female footballer in the world, Marta, who yesterday signed her contract with the WPS team Los Angeles Sol.
The 22-year old Brazilian star was just elected Best Female FIFA Footballer of the Year for the third time in a row. Marta's achievement become even more impressive and we see that besides the three best player titles she's been among the top three since 2004, when she was only 17 years old.
Marta will join Olympic Gold medalists, Shannon Boxx, Aly Wagner
and Stephanie Cox. There is still the possibility for the L.A. Sol to bring in other international players such as Japanese
midfielder Aya Miyama and Chinese forward Han
Duan.
On a personal note, with the best females footballers coming to play in the Women's Professional Soccer League we can certainly be sure that the level of the competition will be as high as the
best men's leagues on the planet.
So if you live in Southern California come watch the Los Angeles Sol when the WPS kicks off on March 29th.
LA Sol tickets are already available

LA Sol will be the first to play at home in the WPS season opening at the Home Depot Center
Thursday, 18 December 08, 03:35 PM
It's happening. We've all waited very long to have the dates for the first matches announced and now that we know them we can start reporting about what goes on with our own Los Angeles Sol.
To start let me me just say how cool it was to see the US WNT Team play (and beat) China twice this month. And in the first match at the Home Depot Center future LA Sol teamates Shannon Boxx, Aly Wagner, Stephanie Cox posed for a picture with one of the probable international Sol player Han Duan. Very cool!
Now it's time for you to go get your tickets for the home opening that will take place on Sunday, March 29, 2009. You don't want to be the last one do you? Get your tickets now!

The ABOVE THE CLOUDS Blog needs YOU!
If you live in the Los Angeles area and are a true fan of the L.A. Sol and would love to be closer to the team you're the person we're looking for.
This blog was created to give fans the opportunity to write about Sol and to become the Official OleOle Blogger for the team.
We will already count on "Junior Journalist" Alondra Hernandez but we want two more people helping out to make the ABOVE THE
CLOUDS the best blog among the 7 other that will be created for each WPS Team.
It's NOT a paid job. We just had this idea of promoting each team and the league to maybe convince OleOle to create individual pages for each teams and for the league just like they do with men's soccer.
We're also trying to establish a partnership with the WPS and the teams so that the bloggers will be able to apply for Press Credentials and cover each home match as a real journalist. You will also be able to interview the players and provide other fans with the best and most interesting information about the LA Sol.
Are you up for the challenge?
Send us an e-mail at OleOleWPS@gmail.com and apply to prove you're the ultimate Los Angeles Sol fan!
