Founded in 1971, our club—originally known as Los Angeles Maccabee FC—quickly established itself as a powerhouse in American soccer. We made history by winning the Triple Crown twice, in 1977 and 1978, capturing the Greater Los Angeles Soccer League, California State Cup, and the prestigious US Open Cup.

In 1974 and 1978, we qualified for the CONCACAF Champions Cup, showcasing our club’s elite status on the international stage. One of our greatest triumphs came in 1978, when we defeated Bridgeport Vasco da Gama at Giants Stadium in front of 30,000 fans, as part of a double-header alongside the legendary New York Cosmos and Tampa Bay Rowdies of the North American Soccer League.

After 1982, the club ceased professional operations, but our legacy never faded. The Maccabee Athletic Club remained active, focusing on developing young players. Today, we continue this rich tradition under our new name: Maccabi Futbol Academy. Our vision is to build one of the best developmental clubs for young athletes, combining elite training with a strong foundation in teamwork, discipline, and excellence.

The name Los Angeles Maccabee FC remains part of our competitive identity, symbolizing our storied history and commitment to the future of soccer.
