BODYARMOR Once Again Official Sports Drink of the Team

CHICAGO – The Chicago Red Stars are pleased to welcome back BODYARMOR as the official sports drink partner for the 2016 National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL) season.

BODYARMOR will be the official sideline drink for all Red Stars home games and in the team’s clubhouse throughout the season. BODYARMOR will also be a steady presence in the Red Stars Fan Zone on the concourse before each home match at Toyota Park this season.

“We’re excited to expand upon a great first season together and look forward to seeing the relationship continue to develop as both of our organizations grow year over year,” said Chicago Red Stars General Manager Alyse LaHue.
