There are roundel logos on every continent where professional club soccer is played. In a way, it is the perfect shape for a crest in this beautiful game of ours.

In March 2020, the sports world (as we knew it then) came to a screeching halt due to the coronavirus pandemic, and the idea to revive a Carolina FIFA league was given life.

Seeing the ball hit the net for the first time in 2021, cheering for last-minute winners, and yes, sports-hating on our rivals together – these are the memories that this new Charlotte MLS team has given me the chance to create with my family.
