My Story
We’re Bangalore City FC - the lions, roaring from the heart of Namma Ooru (our city). Football’s our life, but it’s more than just goals and wins. We started so any kid with fire could become a ‘total footballer’. Been through tough losses, wild wins, and a whole lot of grind – this year, made it to KSFA Super Division! We play hard, train harder, and yeah, sometimes you’ll catch us showing off some samba moves. This club? It’s family.
