Does anyone know if the email appointments for the general season ticket holders have started? It was stated that they were being sent out December 16th.
Not a ton of details revealed on their thought process, but I do feel like I know the staff a bit better after listening.

Will season ticket buters need to get a 30 yr lease for Chase like they do for the Warriors?
I know most of the season tickets haven't been sold, but I was looking at Stubhub today and the ticket prices on their are insane ($300+ to get in the building). Do you all expect this to be the case for the first season?
Building our team out on defense first! Natalie said she wants all the players on a flight to the Bay already to start training. 😂 I love the ready-to-work eagerness!
Question: How long should I need to wait for confirmation after buying tix? I put down my deposit for season tix and was contacted by a sales rep in Oct.with an appointment for seat selection on Nov. 21. I had a virtual meeting with the rep as scheduled and purchased tix in a follow-up call the next day. He stated there would be a confirmation email the following week but I haven't recieved any communication regarding my tix. I've reached out to the rep via email and his response was that everything looked fine on his end he would look into why I have not received the confirmation. But there has been no further communication. I have looked for a direct phone number or email I might be able to use to contact a sales office but can't find anything. This is my first time buying season tix, is this the typical process?

Considering that the expansion draft is on Friday, and this being the inaugural season for the Golden State Valkyries...this is basically Dub Nation 2.0 so who do you want to see end up with the Valkyries in this expansion draft?
Plus with the 2025 WNBA Draft coming up in a few months, it begs the question of which college player or overseas player do you wanna see drafted to this team especially if you pay attention to mock drafts?
Valkyries just released their 2025 schedule. https://valkyries.wnba.com/schedule?utm_content=GSV-Schedule&utm_source=adobe&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=GSV-STM-Regular-CyberMonday-Announce-20241202&cm_em=466a472ea5e8f794adce6b2def10bd15979b000145c57ad0e2348433e1cdaa95&segcode=&deliveryName=DM1070892
If not, I was thinking of creating one! My goal is to start with a post exploring the possibilities of the upcoming expansion draft and build from there.
That said, my hardest challenge right now is coming up with a great blog name. While "Valkyries" is an awesome team name, it’s a bit tricky to spell and type into a browser, so I’m looking for something creative, catchy, and easy to remember.
The best idea I’ve come up with so far is Violet Victory, but I’d love to hear your thoughts or other suggestions!
