the oldest
community-
owned
soccer club in america
San Francisco City FC was founded on the principle that a local sports team should be an organization ingrained in and reflective of the San Francisco community, rather than a business used for the profit of a select few. This means allowing fans to have control over how the club is operated and using sports as a vehicle to improve our city. The SF City FC Members Organization pledges to do this through charity events, volunteer hours, free youth soccer programs, fundraising, and democratically representing our members’ interests.
Our goal is to grow in San Francisco and have both men’s and women’s professional teams, as well as free youth teams at every age level. If our mission resonates with you, please consider getting involved with the club!
