Fort Lauderdale's Own,
On the World Stage
Florida Storm FC is the official soccer team of The West End Lounge — a family built on the pitch and celebrated off it. United by sport, pride, and community, these players carry the West End name with every match they play.
In the summer of 2026, they'll travel to València, Spain to compete in the Gay Games XII — one of the most celebrated LGBTQIA+ sporting events in the world, open to all.
The Kit
Wearing It
With Pride
The Florida Storm FC kit features The West End Lounge crest front and center. Navy blue. Bold lines. Built to compete.
When they step onto the pitch in València, they carry more than a name on their backs. They carry a community.
