More surprisingly, no athletes were listed among the 300 or so entries, either in a generalist or specific category: perhaps, because of the significance of amateurism as a prevailing ethos in sport until the 1960s.

  • Everywhere and Nowhere: the Forgotten Past and Clouded Future of American Professional Soccer from the Perspective of Massachusetts Steven Apostolov*
    Soccer & Society Vol. 13, No. 4, July 2012, 510–535 Everywhere and nowhere: the forgotten past and clouded future of American professional soccer from the perspective of Massachusetts Steven Apostolov* Department of Political Science, University of Massachusetts, Lowell, MA, USA Professional soccer in the USA enjoyed several moments of popularity through- out the twentieth century. Professional soccer leagues were founded, some as early as the 1890s. In spite of that, the sport has never caught fire at the profes- sional level. Soccer leagues have not only been in the shadow of baseball, foot- ball, basketball and, most recently, ice hockey, but with the exception of Major League Soccer, a newcomer on the mainstream sporting scene, all of them have folded within a couple of decades. This essay provides insight as to why profes- sional soccer has failed to attain the status of a major American sport. It also analyses the development of professional soccer in the USA through the scope of immigration and from the perspective of Massachusetts. Introduction US soccer is not a common topic among historians. It is not a common topic among soccer fans, either. If you ask any admirer of sports to name the world’s fin- est nations in soccer, the list will be long. Depending on their nationality, different soccer lovers will provide different answers. The Dutch would only grudgingly con- cede the Spaniards played better in the 2010 World Cup final, and Brazilians still believe they had the ability to capture a sixth World Cup title in South Africa. It would never occur to a soccer fan, however, to include the USA among the world’s leading powers of the game.

First, it is a look at the newly formed National Women’s Soccer League. The league is the third attempt to establish a women’s professional soccer league in the U.S. Low attendance, low-ticket sales, and poor team ownership spelled the end for past leagues. The United States Soccer Federation’s involvement in the league has team owners and players overwhelming confident that the league will be a success. Challenges await them as the NWSL looks to learn from the mistakes of its predecessors. The second part looks at women’s professional soccer in Texas. The first audio story focuses on the Houston Aces and Lauren Prewitt.
