Community Outreach
Each year, the Spirit Squad tackles a community outreach event the day before our first home football game. On Sept. 9, the team enjoyed a morning at the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and prepared over 2000 bags of food for school children and senior citizens in need. We are proud that they are making an impact on the Los Angeles community and beyond! Check out the photos in our Legacy Gallery.
