Since 96: We Are LA -- Blue, White, and Gold Forever

“Soccer’s not a game you can buy with advertising,” said Ozzy Gomez, an immigrant from Argentina and club president of the Galaxians, the club’s first official fan club. “People will go because they feel it in their heart.”

That was in 1996, our first season, and it’s an ethos that has carried through ever since. Through good times and bad, highs and lows, tradition is something that goes a long way in sport, even more so in this game.
