The Utah Valley Thunder have moved their home opener to March 23rd!
3/2/2009
Utah County based Professional Indoor Football team, The Utah Valley Thunder, made a calculated decision earlier this week to move their home opener from a Thursday to a Monday. After discussions with their opponent, the Wyoming Cavalry and Management at the McKay Events Center, the Thunder announced they will kick off the seven game home schedule of their inaugural season on Monday, March 23rd, at 7PM.
The Thunder opened training camp on Monday with 38 players vying for a spot on the team. Camp culminates in the McKay Events Center (aka, The ThunderDome) on March 2nd and 3rd with a number of “open” events that will give the team’s fan base a chance to meet the players and get a feel for what AIFA Indoor Football will be like in their home arena. The team will hold open practices on Monday, March 3rd and will kick off a “Select Your Seat” event allowing fans to sit in their actual seats and preview the action before purchasing their season tickets. On Tuesday, March 2nd, the Thunder will host a Media Day with their morning practice open to the media followed by a press conference where they will announce their final 30 man roster.
Season tickets are on sale through the team’s website, www.utahvalleythunder.com. Single game tickets are also available through SmithTix and at the McKay Events Center Ticket Office.
