Angel City wants to be 'resilient,’ ‘relentless,’ and ‘ruthless’ in 2025. Turns out, those words are on the walls at their training center.

Angelina Anderson, Angel City vice captain and goalkeeper: "If you told me I was captaining Christen Press and Sydney Leroux, I couldn't have even thought that was a possibility at some point."
March 14, 2025 at 8:57 PM
Sarah Gorden is Angel City's captain this year. Angelina Anderson is vice captain, according to Angel City PR.

Ali Riley is the club captain. She will assume typical captain duties but also be more embedded in the front office with community involvement and other roles.
