ORLANDO – August 12, 2014 – The number 21 is prevalent throughout pop culture. From the winning hand in Black Jack, to a biblical number of perfection, to one that our fans certainly enjoy – the legal drinking age, the number 21 has played a major role in our society.

It also has very deep meaning for Orlando City. The Lions were selected as the 21st expansion team in Major League Soccer – a noteworthy milestone raucously celebrated by thousands. There are 21 sun flares encircling the lion’s mane on City’s MLS logo. And, City’s 2015 MLS debut at the Orlando Citrus Bowl will mark 21 years since the stadium hosted the 1994 FIFA World Cup.

To build upon this numerical significance, Orlando City Soccer Club Founder and President Phil Rawlins today unveiled the details of Society XXI (Twenty One), the first founding season ticket member custom rewards program of its kind in Central Florida professional sports.

Society XXI membership is automatically extended to current 2015 season ticket holders at no additional cost. Future Season Ticket Members will also be enrolled in Society XXI at no cost, but space is limited and will be available on a first-come, first-served basis.

As founding members of the MLS’ 21st team, Society XXI members will receive a custom Society XXI Orlando City Scarf, and beginning on September 2, 2014, will be able to select a special one-time benefit from a list of 21 including:

• A private stadium tour
• Match worn jerseys
• Post-game photo on the pitch
• Access to exclusive training sessions
• Pre-game warm-ups on the field
• Lunch with City coaching staff
• Complimentary Orlando City Youth Soccer session
• And many others…

“The Lions boast the best fans in the City Beautiful and we’re proud to showcase this program that rewards their loyalty by providing unprecedented access and experiences unlike any other professional sports team” said Rawlins. 

Current and future members of Society XXI can select one of these 21 experiences online at www.OrlandoCitySC.com/society beginning September 2, 2014. To purchase season tickets, visit www.OrlandoCitySC.com or call 855-ORL-CITY.

“These options will go fast so we encourage fans to act quickly and register for the September 2nd deadline to secure their preferred reward. Society XXI is a once-in-a-life-time opportunity. We only debut in the MLS once so we want our most loyal fans who joined us from the start to experience something special as we usher a new era in the ‘Soccer Capital of the South.’ ”
In future years, all renewing Society XXI members will receive an annual exclusive benefit.

Over the course of the next 21 days, Orlando City will embark on a campaign recognizing current Society XXI members, as well as revisiting some of the most memorable events in the Club’s history and highlighting Society XXI experiences that will be available for selection on September 2.
