Leopardos Soccer started as a youth organization to help out young kids in the Koreatown/Echo Park area. We would look for young players who needed help with their development in soccer and guide them to play for either local teams, clubs and academies. But, we realized that there was no competition around the area. So our founder, Byron, decided to make a league for all local teams to come and compete.

It first started at John Ferraro Fields. Since 2016, Byron has been running the league and tournaments to bring in communities from Los Angeles to come and compete. Leopardos has been running for years and has hosted many tournaments. Our biggest tournament to date had up to 85 teams!
