The Chattanooga Football Club will begin its fifth season in May with a National Premier Soccer League game against Rocket City United. It’s the first of 10 NPSL games in CFC’s fullest schedule so far.
Along with playing in the rapidly expanding NPSL, which has grown from 13 teams to 61 in the past seven years, Chattanooga FC also will participate in the U.S. Open Cup for the second time.
CFC general manager Sean McDaniel said the club will bid to host as many Cup games as it can. In addition, it may try to host games not involving Chattanooga FC.
CFC hosted and won a Cup qualifying series at Finley Stadium in 2011; it automatically qualified for the 2013 Cup by winning the NPSL Southeast Conference last season.
