Both are at 11:00 am. UC Riverside (Saturday)/Japanese All-Stars (Sunday). No bleachers up yet so bring your chairs.

Did I hear correctly that there are plans to build new bleachers/stadium for the soccer field? Do you know the status? A visit to the campus shows a glaring disparity between the baseball and soccer facilities.

I personally have heard nothing about new bleachers but I do know there is a fundraising campaign to purchase and install lights. I am a proponent of new bleachers however, I am not feeling the lights so much. Can't see that beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean at night.
When they added the new dorms behind/above the soccer field, I discussed with others how it would have been cool if they dug out the hillside between the road above and the track that goes around the field and built a locker room for the girls and then put some stands above it. If you've been to Stanford's Cagan Stadium it would look something like that.
A locker room and *gasp* maybe a restroom? of their very own?!
I heard that it was 2PM kickoff on Saturday and 12PM kickoff on Sunday....

UCLA plays the same JFA Academy on Friday at 5:30pm. It won't be a good game but it will be nice to see some prep before the game against the NWSL team next Saturday at Silverlakes.

My player sent me a screen shot beginning of February of a printed schedule of all the spring games and they were both listed as 11:00 am but maybe that changed?

You are correct. 2 & 12 it is. Gives me time to run up to Neptune’s for a couple brews.
What is this JFA/Japanese All-Stars? Are these women? University-Aged? Club ladies? Japanese players good enough for all stars but not good enough for the SheBelieves cup?

They are a college aged team. Well below the national team level. Basically the equivalent of a Japanese D1 college team.

Don't forget the dry aged New York Strip with lobster mashed potatoes...and the shrimp and andouille sausage appetizer is phenomenal. Also generous pours of your favorite Native American spirit...

Sounds like it will be a fun game.

The Fieldhouse has multiple viewing decks that facilitate spectator viewing of many fields, but with 24 fields, it’s impossible to see all of the action on each pitch. The Fieldhouse bar has a dual level deck with a great view of the artificial turf fields. Tremendous burgers and pizza too...

I'm just hoping for no injuries. Everything is on schedule for the team to be 100% in August other than one freshman that will miss this season due to an ACL. Senior season for the 2016 recruiting class so this is their last spring. They will be at full strength for the next month then they will be missing their maestro for the month of June, however, unlike her freshman year with the Olympics she will be back in plenty of time for summer school (she is an engineering major) and the other three injured players will be back at least 3 weeks before the season starts. This spring is about building up their depth and getting ready for a run at a second star for their kit.
So yes it should be fun. They have been looking really good in training.
What, they don't have cocktails and meats at facilities in NorCal?

Uhhh, no. We had to smuggle that stuff in.
