Hey South Florida, did you know that you can get tickets to a professional sports game in this town…read morethat don't cost an arm and a leg? I know, it's not Heat, Dolphins, Marlins, or even Panthers. It's the Florida Launch, South Florida's own professional lacrosse team. Playing eight home games a season at FAU in Boca, tickets can be well below twenty dollars a piece. Not familiar with lacrosse? In many ways it is the oldest and newest sport around. Lacrosse was played by Native American Iroquois in the Northeastern United States. At the same time it is one of the fastest growing sports in the United States right now, especially in youth athletics. It seems that every new person I meet has their kid in lacrosse! I think you have to actually watch a lacrosse game to appreciate it. The kids love it because they get to pass the ball with big sticks. It has elements of soccer and hockey. It is fast and physical, usually with more scoring than hockey and baseball. The Launch, started by Casey Powell, one of the best lacrosse players ever, had their inaugural season in 2014. The crowds have definitely increased this year, although I can't say they are filling half of lower bowl at the FAU stadium. It is a fun family event for the kids and anyone who lives or is interested in the game. I am always impressed that the the players always take lots of time to sign autographs after the games. Sometimes they can be there for an hour signing the kids' balls, hats, shirts, and even sticks! It certainly makes the kids even more enthusiastic about coming to the games and gives the whole experience a true hometown, warm, "feel good" experience. Perhaps some of our other professional sports teams could learn from that! The Launch has done a better job of marketing this year with ticket packages and youth clinics. Believe it or not you can check out their games and other MLL games on ESPN! If you like what you see, you may want to come and check out a game in person. There are two more games left for the season...and then there is always next year!

Been a Dolphins fan my whole life. It's my home team. I remember as a kid being proud that the…read moreDolphins were the one and only team to be perfect and win every game one year, sadly it happened long before I was born and as a kid I always dreamed to see it happen again...right now I am praying to just see them one day plan and win in a Super Bowl. God knows I miss Shula and Marino and the team I grew up cheering... still I'm a Dolphins fan for life. Coming to Hard Rock Stadium last week to see my Dolphins against the Bills, it reminded me why I love the Dolphins... we won yes but it was the atmosphere being around other 'phins fans and hearing them cheer and sing for our team: "Miami has the Dolphins The Greatest Football Team We take the ball from goal to goal Like no one's ever seen We're in the air, we're on the ground We're always in control And when you say Miami You're talking Super Bowl 'Cause we're the... Miami Dolphins, Miami Dolphins, Miami Dolphins Number One. Yes we're the... Miami Dolphins, Miami Dolphins, Miami Dolphins Number One" https://youtu.be/yIcIPd9bDBI Go Dolphins!!!!!!!!

Go Fins! Most fans…read morein South Florida love the Miami Dolphins but sadly only when they are on a winning streak, which unfortunately is much less of the time. I never had season tickets to the games but always accept last minute free tickets from friends. The pre-paid parking passes are like gold and almost as costly. The Hard Rock Stadium is a cool name but most of my experiences here were during the Joe Robbie Stadium banner. Fun times at the games where I only will splurge on a $20.00 can of domestic beer with an oversized salted pretzel. the atmosphere during the games are exhilarating whether up in the nosebleed section or down on the lower level fifty yard line. Guys, please at least get to the playoffs in 2026 - fingers crossed.

Watching them practice only to have 5 (at 3:15) minutes of want to get your autograph and have most of the team not come... Well.. For me it is been there doene that! Would not recommend to others.

Summer. Ever since I was in middle school, that word always meant no school & Dolphins Training…read moreCamp. I've consistently attended camp before they closed off the near parking garage for students; before the practice bubble; before the covered VIP bleachers; waaaay before Stephen Ross; toward the end of the Don Shula era On my most recent visit, I felt inclined to express how different the experience has become. Long gone are the days of a welcoming training camp; when I used to park right next to the practice fields. This event used to be open admission. Granted, we don't have to pay for tickets, but it's more of a hassle now. The practice bubble. Oh God, the practice bubble. A light sun shower started to come down & the team went inside for a "5min cooling break." A cooling break?! Give me a break! I get that the NFLPA is much more active nowadays & may perhaps have something to do with it. But damn. The pansification of football extends to the training camp experience. Two-a-day practices used to be open to the public. The media is now covering from the stands. Blocking spectators from their views. What the hell is that about?! They used to be confined to the one maybe two towers on field. Where are these fools coming from? Ugh. Despite all this, I will still come out & support my team when I can. But damn. I can't really say the changes have been for the better when it comes to the training camp experience.

South Florida Club Sport, formerly known as The Miami Sports and Social Club, was the first…read moreorganization to put organized coed soccer on the Miami map (among other sports, but if you know me well then you know soccer is the only sport that counts in my book). Before most of these soccer fields and adult leagues popped up around the Miami area, South Florida Club Sport was setting up soccer leagues at the KSP field (even before it expanded and is what it is today) and let me tell you, they know how to organize sports very, VERY well. I've played in several leagues for SFCS from 2005 till now and that just shows you how awesome they are. Not only was it a great way for me to stay in shape but the best part about it was I also met and made lifelong friends through the various leagues I joined throughout the years. Additionally, I've had many interactions with the owner of the company, Steve Arsenault, and he is nothing short of professional as well as friendly. He's always open to feedback from the league members so if you ever find yourself thinking of ways to improve the league you're playing in, just reach out to him and he'll be all ears. He also tries to set up other social events and trips for the league members which is always appreciated and enjoyable. What else is there to say except that this company has consistently established solid leagues for all kinds of sports and has brought the Miami community together in a social and fun way. If you're new to Miami or a native Miamian (Broward County counts, too), make it a point to join one of their leagues. You will not regret it! Their motto to me should be, "SFCS - making adult soccer leagues cool since the early 2000s."
