• Source: Greater Los Angeles Soccer League

      • The Los Angeles Soccer League was a regional soccer league consisting of clubs based in and around Los Angeles. Established as the California Football Association, the league was founded in 1902 and it is one of the oldest soccer leagues in the United States (alongside the Cosmopolitan Soccer League and the Chicago League).
      The California Football Association changed, the south split off the San Francisco Soccer Football League and the Greater Los Angeles Soccer League was formed in 1951.
      In 1963, Spanish club Real Madrid came to LA to face Los Angeles United at the LA Coliseum. Stars like Paco Gento and Ferenc Puskas gave a great show thrashing the United by 9-0. Months after the game the historical LA United folded. Maccabee Los Angeles would be the team to dominate the league in the 1970s.
      Nowadays, semi-professional and amateur leagues in and around Los Angeles are affiliated with the United States Adult Soccer Association region IV (California Soccer Association-South).
