After reviewing this week’s resources, please discuss objectives on how you would create a new MLS team for a city near you (it should be a large enough city to support an MLS team). Make sure that MLS does not already have a team in the city you choose. Why am I asking that you do this on Major League Soccer?

Discuss some objectives of your new MLS team, discuss the following two areas also:
- Potential conflicting territorial rights with a current team (and solutions to this).
- Perceived supporter fan base.
