Disney World is playing host to several sports leagues as their seasons are set to begin.
One such league is Major League Soccer! Teams are set to resume their season at Walt Disney World in the coming weeks with the MLS is Back Tournament. Today, players, staff, and more began arriving at Disney’s Swan and Dolphin Resorts to get ready for the start of the season.
Tons of players and reporters have taken to Twitter to talk about their experience in their first days of arrival in Disney World. ESPN Reporter Stefano Fusaro noted that right at check-in he was administered a health test and will need to quarantine.
So just checked into the hotel inside the MLS Bubble. Got my Covid nasal swab test and it was definitely uncomfortable, but I was expecting worse. Now quarantined in my room for the rest of the night until tomorrow morning, when I will get another Covid year. #MLSisBack

A common note from MLS players is the less-than-stellar food they’ve received. Player Omar Gonzalez posted a picture of the menu with lunch prices alongside a picture of the meal he was delivered. Prices on the menu range from $45-$75 dollars.

As a reminder, the Swan and Dolphin Hotels will remain closed to the general public through July, and guests with existing reservations will be relocated. Similarly, some Disney World resorts are currently closed to accommodate NBA teams and affiliates. We spotted some fencing being installed over at Disney’s Yacht Club today to keep guests and players separated.
Keep an eye on DFB for all of the latest updates on Walt Disney World accommodations and the sports teams that are staying there!
