The first women’s pro soccer team in Cleveland.
Cleveland Astra is named after you.
The whole grand sweep of the cosmos has a way of bringing people together. The stars inspire joy, wonder, curiosity. The undying urge to look. up. So does soccer. A fiercely talented footballer in full flight is spellbinding. It makes you believe you can do or be so much more. It turns stadia of strangers into neighbors who wrap their arms around each other and sing.
And here in Northeast Ohio, we’ve been producing stars for generations: on the pitch and in the stands. Women from Northeast Ohio play top-flight ball all over the planet. Our fans pledged to fill a stadium before we even had a team. It’s high-time we had one.
We set out to be the North Star of soccer in Cleveland: not just winning titles, but being a constant, a guiding light. Giving more talented women a team to play for. Giving our fans a club to be proud of. Giving the city a reason to look up.
Your potential is written in the stars, Cleveland. Look up.
