Angel City Football Club Honored as 2026 Civic Leadership Game Changer

LOS ANGELES, May 3, 2026 — Angel City Football Club accepts Asia Society Southern California's Civic Leadership Game Changer Award at the 2026 Asia Game Changer Awards SoCal presented by MindChamps. Entertainer, producer, gender equality advocate, and Angel City Part-Owner Lilly Singh introduces the club, and Controlling Owner Willow Bay accepts on behalf of the team alongside players June Endo, Hina Sugita, Casey Phair, Gisele Thompson, and Kennedy Fuller — each representing the global diversity at the heart of the club's identity. Bay reflects on how community impact has been central to Angel City's business model from the start, including the club's Immigrant City Football Club campaign, which produced a T-shirt bearing the words "Los Angeles is for Everyone" in 13 languages and directed proceeds to resources for immigrant families in Los Angeles.
