WHO ARE WE?

UCLA Men’s Club Soccer is a competitive, student-run team made up of passionate student-athletes who want to continue playing soccer at a competitive level. More than just teammates, we’re a tight-knit family that supports each other both on and off the field. Whether it’s at practice, game day, or a team meal, some of our closest friendships have been formed because of this team.

With limited university funding, most expenses—travel, tournaments, equipment—come out of pocket. Luckily, we’re backed by a strong community of alumni, families, and friends who make what we do possible. Your support helped power our successes this year—and we’re just getting started. Your support of the UCLA Men's Club Soccer movement is what we need!

HOW YOU CAN HELP!

Last year, we raised $7,070—beyond our goal of $7,000—and it made a huge impact on this season, as we came runner-up in Closed Division Nationals for the first time in program history! This upcoming season, we’re setting our sights even higher: to reclaim the league title, win Regionals, and chase our first Closed National title.

To get there, we’re aiming to raise $7,000. Every contribution, big or small, fuels our journey and helps keep this program thriving. We believe we have the talent needed to get there, but we need your help, too, if our movement is going to thrive!

1 YEAR RECAP OF 2024-25

Spring 2025: 

In the Spring, your Bruins competed in the WCSA Playoffs in Orange County. With three wins in the Group Stage, the Bruins reached the semi-finals, where the boys finished 3rd, beating UCSB for the fourth time in the season, 5-2 in the 3rd/4th playoff game. After suffering a penalty defeat in the semi-final against eventual tournament winners Cal Poly, your Bruins showed their resilience, completing five games in three days. *The end of the year also called for celebration as the team held its annual formal event with UCLA Women's Club Soccer in Westwood. On top of that, the teams held an additional senior celebration where they received personalized T-shirts and FIFA cards.*

Fall 2025: 

Your Bruins started the season with a bang, winning the Aztec Cup in early October at SDSU. The boys won six games in three days, defeating the likes of UCSB, UC Davis, CSU Fullerton, and more.  At the same time, the squad welcomed 14 new rookies to the fray after a successful 4-day trial period. At Nationals in Overland Park, Kansas, your Bruins won 5 games en route to their first Closed Division Finals in program history! In the finals, the boys eventually fell to BYU by a minimum of 0-1. Despite the result, Nationals was an unforgettable way to end the first quarter!

Winter 2025: 

Your Bruins prepared relentlessly throughout the season as they fought to defend their league title for a historic third consecutive year, coming just short of bringing home the championship after another highly competitive campaign. The program also earned national recognition, with four Bruins being named to the US College Club Soccer All-American team. Captain Travis Caplan received the organization’s highest honor, being recognized as US College Club Soccer Player of the Year for his outstanding leadership and performances throughout the season.

Spring 2026: 

Your Bruins spent the Spring Quarter training hard, building stronger bonds as a team, and preparing to celebrate graduation together after another memorable season. The team competed in the US College Club Soccer Tournament in Irvine, battling through tough competition and advancing all the way to the semifinals. As the year came to a close, the Bruins continued to showcase the dedication, chemistry, and competitive spirit that defined the program throughout the season.
