Denver Summit FC: Pitchside | Episode Three: The First Win

The Denver Summit FC is finally victorious!

In episode three of Denver Summit FC: Pitchside, Nick Rothschild re-lives Denver’s epic first ever win over defending champion Gotham FC alongside head coach Nick Cushing. And the icing on the cake - now they can turn their full attention to their highly-anticipated home opener on Saturday.

Denver7’s Maggy Wolanske takes us through Colorado’s rich history of home openers - and we hear from some of the players about the mounting excitement for their debut at Empower Field.

And Denver7’s Jessica Porter shows us the impact women’s sports is having on our community.

Denver Summit FC: Pitchside is meant to help connect fans to this franchise - so if there’s something you’d like to see in the show or questions you’d like us to ask of the club, send us a note!
