>Last year the United Soccer League added Real Maryland FC to the USL Second Division for our area north of the nation’s capital. Although the team had to play elsewhere during its first season, the Monarchs are now home! This weekend this professional team will open the spring soccer season at our very own Richard Montgomery High School Lester Stadium.

A preseason game will be on Sunday, April 5, 2009 at 1:00 PM – Real Maryland FC vs. Rochester Rhinos (USL First Division). Admission is $5 at the gate. If a club team comes to the games in their game jerseys with 20 or more players, 10 players will get in free. The concession stand will be open.

Last year Victor Moran, the principle owner, said “We are going to create a REAL event, not just a soccer game, that’s why I named the club Real Maryland FC.”

After the game, you can stop by Austin Grill in the Rockville Town Center for a meet and greet with the players! Welcome our team to Rockville!

Here’s the season schedule.

The Real Maryland Monarch also want to form the first 2009 Monarch Dance Team! They are looking for approximately 8-10 members over 18 years of age (graduating high school seniors, college students, and professional dancers are welcome). The 2009 tryouts will be held April 5th at Richard Montgomery High School from 4-9 PM. Registration will begin at 4:00 PM and go until 4:45 PM.
