The California State University, Northridge Matadors sports teams are back on campus and kicking off their home season this week and weekend.

The women’s soccer team will play their second home match Thursday when they face the UNLV Rebels at 7 p.m.

The men’s soccer team will have their home opener Friday at 7 p.m. hosting the New Mexico Lobos. At this match, CSUN students can bring their parents for “Bring Your Own Parents Nights.” CSUN students will need to show their CSUN ID to receive two tickets for their parents.

At both matches, we are giving out Game Day t-shirts to the first 100 fans. Gates open at 6 p.m. so make sure to show up early.

Are you ready to make some noise? Because we are throwing out vuvuzelas to fans at halftime. So grab one and bring it back with you each match.

The women’s volleyball team opens their home schedule with the CSUN-Pepperdine Challenge this Friday at 6 p.m. against the North Texas Mean Green. They continue the challenge on Saturday at 5 p.m. against the Idaho Vandals. Both home matches of the CSUN-Pepperdine Challenge are free admission.

The men’s soccer team closes the weekend on Sunday at 1 p.m. when the Utah Valley Wolverines come to the San Fernando Valley to play in a non-conference match. Be sure to get to the game early because we are giving out FREE frozen yogurt, thanks to Menchie’s. Gates open at 12 p.m.
