Forward Madison FC's 2025 standings in USL League One placed the Flamingos 10th, with a record of 8-11-11 for 35 points. Matt Glaeser runs the sideline, and Derek Gebhard led the line with 11 goals, with Aiden Mesias serving chances from midfield. Mascot Strut and a fan culture that treats pink as a statement keep Breese lively, especially when the press is on. Plan your next match night with Event Tickets Center.

Flamingo Frenzy at Breese Stevens Field

Breese Stevens Field events provide Forward Madison with a stage that feels quintessentially Madison: an old-school grandstand, close sightlines, and a venue that seamlessly transitions from soccer to concerts and festivals. The city designed the stadium in 1925 and opened it on May 5, 1926. Upgrades have since pushed match nights toward a roughly 5,000-seat setup with room to expand. Sandstone walls and tight corners keep noise trapped on the pitch, with the Capitol a short walk away. Settle near the Flock End, where The Flock supporters keep the chants rolling.

USL League One Playoffs

USL League One teams keep chasing a clean cutoff: the top eight qualify for the playoffs, a single-elimination bracket that starts the weekend of Nov. 1 and ends with the final in mid-November. Forward Madison finished 10th in 2025, so the next step is simple: turn draws into wins and climb above the line. Rival nights like the Henny Derby against the Richmond Kickers can swing momentum fast, and the club’s Forward Futures program ties local talent to the first team.
