Official Website of the Cleveland Crunch

As active members of the Greater Cleveland soccer community, we understand the significant fan presence that exists throughout Northeast Ohio. Bringing back professional indoor soccer to the city of Cleveland under the name Cleveland Crunch will help restore the memories and nostalgia created by the previous success of the franchise. With an established fan base and a plethora of quality local soccer talent, reliving the days of packed stadiums, exuberant cheers, and raising championship trophies seems all too real.

It’s April 26, 1994, and the Cleveland Convocation Center is filled with exhilarating roars from fans as they celebrate the Cleveland Crunch’s double overtime victory over the St. Louis Ambush to capture their first title in franchise history. In a passionate sports town like Cleveland, the success of the Crunch filled a void that resonated with fans for many years prior; winning. Despite nearly a decade of triumph, the Cleveland Crunch played their last game in 2001. In an effort to resurrect the legacy of this historical franchise, we strive to bring professional indoor soccer back to the city of Cleveland.
