To Be a Sounder

Take a look behind what it means To Be A Sounder

To Be A Sounder 150205

Over 40 years of history. A city of supporters. Soccer runs deep in Seattle and it means more than pulling on the Rave Green and taking to the pitch in front of a sold-out CenturyLink Field. In a new video series, we’re taking an inside look at what it means To Be A Sounder. Each video will look at a player’s journey to the club and what the experience means to him.


For Cristian Roldan, it meant a dream come true as he heard his name as the sixteenth overall selection at the 2015 SuperDraft.

For Troy Perkins, it means the chance to build a lasting legacy with a winning organization.

For Darwin Jones, it’s following in the footsteps of Homegrown Players before him.

For Tyrone Mears, it’s a new adventure in a blossoming league.
