It's official! We finally have a name, colors, and a crest for our St. Louis MLS team! Sadly, they won't be taking the pitch until 2023, due to the league pushing back a few of the expansion teams. But this announcement definitely makes the wait a little bit easier.
We are officially St. Louis CITY SC and I'm hyped for it!
I have played soccer all my life, I'm a purist, and I'm a fan of the European style names. I really like "City" as the name, rather than a "United" or "FC" because it has a real connection to STL with our City vs County mindset. But instead of being a divisive, this name is all about unity!
I also love the colors! I've seen some hate towards the pink (even though it's described as a red), but it is so unique compared to other teams across the league.
Ready for some merch??
Be looking out for the CITY Swag Squad. They won't be hard to miss!
