Relive a significant chapter of Connecticut soccer history with our Connecticut Yankees T-shirt, celebrating their 1975-78 run in the American Soccer League. The Yankees brought professional soccer to Veterans Memorial Stadium in New Britain during the American soccer boom of the 1970s. Despite featuring a mix of international talent and local stars, and representing one of the first attempts to establish professional soccer in Connecticut, the team faced the common challenges of early American soccer ventures. The franchise folded in 1978 amid financial difficulties and the broader instability of professional soccer in America during that era.
