Washington, D.C. -- The Major League Soccer Players Association (MLSPA) today announced that three players have been elected to serve on its Executive Board.

“The members of our Executive Board, both past and present, are a central part of the foundation of the MLSPA,'' said Executive Director Bob Foose. “I want to congratulate and thank our newly elected members. Their commitment to serving their fellow players and to bettering this league demonstrates the dedication and solidarity that has made the MLSPA into what it is today.”
