Saint Louis FC Tickets

The United Soccer League officially awarded an expansion franchise to the St. Louis Scott Gallagher Soccer Club, a local youth soccer organization, on May 1, 2014. It was an auspicious moment, since the city of St. Louis was an early pioneer in American soccer. The St. Louis Soccer League in 1907 was the first fully professional American league of its kind. St. Louis-based clubs played an integral role in the early history of the US Open Cup, winning six titles between 1920 and 1939. The St. Louis Stars was also a founding member of the National Professional Soccer League in 1967 and made the championship game once. As a member of USL Championship, the second tier league on the American soccer pyramid, the Saint Louis FC opened up its inaugural 2015 campaign with an 8-9-11 record. In 2018, the club earned a playoff berth for the first time as an eighth seed, and in the 2019 US Open Cup, Saint Louis pulled off a stunning upset against the Chicago Fire of the MLS 2-1.
