Each issue of Glory travels to a different country to document local and alternative football scenes, hoping to put the ‘beautiful' back into the beautiful game along the way.
San Diego, California may not be the first city to come to mind when thinking of football (or soccer, for our Americans out there), but its team San Diego Loyal proved itself to be a leader both on and off the pitch. Glory gained access to the whole story behind the league's founding, its come up, and the identities of its players. Immerse yourself in the local scene from the beach soccer club to the unique Torero Stadium. Unfortunately, San Diego Loyal announced its impending closure at the end of the 2023 season, so Glory dedicates this issue to America's finest club and city.
