The Boston Breakers announced Harvard Stadium as its home venue on April 2, 2008. The Breakers will
kick off play at the historic athletic facility in April of 2009.

Harvard Stadium, with a FieldTurf™ surface, is the centerpiece of the university’s athletic facilities and
has stood as a Boston landmark for more than a century. In addition to the Breakers, the Harvard Football
team currently plays there, along with other varsity and intramural sports, as well as the Boston
Cannons professional lacrosse team. The Stadium was upgraded in 2006 with the addition of the new
surface, permanent lighting and a removable all-weather bubble which allows for year-round use of
the facility.

“The Boston Breakers are pleased to call Harvard Stadium our home for the opening season of WPS
in 2009,” said Breakers President and General Manager Joe Cummings. “We are certain the passionate
soccer fans of the Boston Breakers will once again support the team in league leading numbers. The
stadium confi guration off ers our fans perfect sight lines for soccer and will provide a real home fi eld
advantage.”

The size of Harvard Stadium and its scaleable seating options will easily accommodate Breakers
crowds, while providing the feel of a major stadium. The stadium’s proximity to public transportation
on the MBTA’s red line was also a contributing factor in the selection.

“We’re thrilled to welcome the Breakers to Harvard and to play a role in helping grow women’s soccer
across the country,” said Harvard University Athletic Director Bob Scalise. “Harvard Stadium has played a
role in many historic sporting events over the years so it’s fi tting that it should play a role in the launch
of this new league.”

Nestled in a spectacular setting next to the Charles River and with the Boston skyline on the horizon,
Harvard Stadium ranks among the nation’s fi nest ahtletic facilities. Built in 1903, it is also the nation’s
oldest stadium. Harvard Stadium is a horseshoe containing architectural elements of a Greek
stadium and Roman circus and is considered an engineering marvel, as it was the world’s fi rst massive
reinforced concrete structure and the fi rst large permanent arena for American college athletics. With a
seating capacity of 30,323, Harvard Stadium is praised for its outstanding sightlines for fans.

Harvard Stadium is recognized as a National Historic Landmark and is one of just three athletic arenas
to be so designated. The Yale Bowl (built in 1914) and the Rose Bowl (built in 1922) are the other two.
