There are few moments in San Diego history that define what’s to come for generations. Mohamed Mansour, Sycuan Tribal Chairman Cody Martinez, and Major League Soccer Commissioner Don Garber among many other soccer supporters, dignitaries and stakeholders held a press conference at Snapdragon Stadium to announce the future of soccer in San Diego. San Diego has been awarded Major League Soccer’s 30th team, which will play its first game in 2025. The Sycuan Tribe becomes the first Native American tribe to have an ownership stake in professional soccer in the United States. As members of the Sycuan Tribe have lived in the region for the past 12,000 years, we know that Sycuan will always be here to support the team, and our region.
