Master of Ceremonies - Ross Fletcher


First Book Seattle is holding its 2nd annual 'What was your First Book?' fundraising read-a-thon on Saturday at Richard Hugo House (1634 11th Ave, Seattle) from 10am to noon on May 18th.

An exciting and eclectic group of Seattle celebrities will come together to read the first book they remember falling in love with.






The voice of the Sounders, Ross Fletcher, will be the Master of Ceremonies for our fundraising event 'What was your first book?'

Ross is now in his second season as the voice of the Seattle Sounders, announcing games alongside Kasey Keller. Previously he was a soccer commentator and reporter for the BBC covering the English Premier League and the Championship and a presenter on BBC World television.

For seven years Ross was the voice of Derby County for BBC Radio Derby, commentating on the English Premier League and Championship. His most memorable call was the 2007 Championship playoff final in which Derby beat West Bromwich Albion in front of 75,000 fans at Wembley Stadium. 
He has worked at two summer Olympics, a junior summer Olympics, a winter Olympics and a junior winter Olympics.  He spent July in London interviewing athletes including Usain Bolt in the Olympic Stadium.
