San Diego Loyal News Release
San Diego, CA - San Diego Loyal SC (SD Loyal) announces its second-ever season will air locally on Fox 5 San Diego, the club's English language broadcast partner.

Select matches determined by the USL Championship will broadcast nationally on ESPN networks.
In addition to announcing broadcast details, the team is excited to welcome their broadcast talent for SD Loyal's 2021 season.

Aside from duties as SD Loyal's Senior Advisor, Hall of Famer and World Cup and Olympic champion, Shannon Mac Millan will return to serve as the Primary Analyst.
Complementing the TV broadcast talent, "Matchday Live" will air on SD Loyal's YouTube channel and "Matchday Live En Español" will air on SD Loyal's Facebook Live before and after matches. Fans are encouraged to watch and engage with "Matchday Live" hosts (Jordan Carruth and Darren Smith) and "Matchday Live En Español" (Ricardo "Pony" Jimenez, Brandon Ambiz and Elias Awad) who will be live from Torero Stadium during home games, and on location at local restaurants, breweries and bars.
