The Greenville Triumph Soccer Club is in its final weeks of practice before opening its fifth season Saturday, March 25 at its new home, Paladin Stadium at Furman University.

If you haven’t cheered on the Triumph with the rowdy fans — affectionately known as the Reedy River Riot what are you waiting for?

You’ll have 16 chances to catch the team at home this year, but we recommend starring these five dates so you don’t miss the fan-favorite theme nights:

Pro Tip: Get your gear to cheer on the Triumph at the Team Store (22 S. Main St.) or shop online.
