San Diego Loyal SC, the newest member of the USL Championship, has announced its name and crest design. The 2020 expansion side unveiled its crest at a community event in downtown San Diego, showcasing a unique design that represents the club's values and commitment to the region. Chairman and San Diego native Andrew Vassiliadis said the name 'San Diego Loyal' reflects the community's passion for the city and its outdoors. The crest features multiple symbols, including an 'SD' mark that resembles the sun and a soccer ball, set against vibrant orange hues. The design also includes representation from San Diego's sky, land, and ocean, with the word 'loyal' positioned in between. San Diego Loyal SC's President and Co-Founder Warren Smith emphasized the importance of community involvement in the design process. The club is currently accepting Season Ticket Member deposits for seats at Torero Stadium, where they will kick off in March 2020. The team's crest was designed in collaboration with local agency Red Door Interactive. San Diego Loyal SC's name and crest are a reflection of the city's diverse community and the club's commitment to representing the region. The club's four pillars - independent, authentic, inclusive, and optimistic - are represented by the four bands of color in the crest. The 'SD' mark is a unique element that symbolizes the club's connection to the city. San Diego Loyal SC is excited to start its journey in the USL Championship and is looking forward to a successful season.
