UCLA Women's Basketball: Bruins Get Exclusive Tour of Bayern Munich Stadium

Making the most of the trip!

Your UCLA women's basketball team recently finished off their summer tour in Senegal and Germany and were able to go 2-1 in their three exhibition matches. The Bruins faced off against some versatile talent in all three games and even though one resulted in a historic win on their end, the other two matches were closer and it was great to see them start building chemistry out there.

However, with the women's program taking their first summer tour in quite some time, they obviously wanted to maximize their time out there and explore the cities when they were not playing basketball.

One of their numerous adventures included a high speed rail trip to Munich where they were able to explore and get an exclusive tour of the Bayern Munich Stadium!

"The massive soccer stadium is home to F.C. Bayern Munich and is the second-largest sport arena in Germany with a capacity of 75,000 people. It is strictly a football facility – luckily for the National Football League, they allowed American football to be included and played on the pitch during the 2022 season. The Bruins got a behind-the-scenes look at the arena which hosts over 4,000 tourists per day when no games are being played. The team saw the official locker room, the media area for the press conference, and got down on the pitch level to see the soccer teams' benches with a sideline view of the field."

Not only was the team able to experience one of the most iconic stadiums but they also got to tour a spot that another great sports team plays in.

Their summer tour went by very fast and we cannot wait until they hit the court again this season!
