The Crocketteers have built their brand to honor the heroes of the Battle of the Alamo. Their motto is simply “Victory or Death” as written by William B. Travis during their 13 days of glory defending San Antonio’s most important landmark, the Alamo. Come join the over 1100 other members that have already “CROSSED THE LINE” Our goal is to give our support to our team the San Antonio FC. We believe a soccer team can only be as strong as the fans that support the team. If San Antonio is going to have a soccer franchise, then it is our duty as soccer fans to grow our numbers and to be the 12th man on the pitch. We want opposing teams to know that this is San Antonio, we…#Defend210!!!
All agree that there needs to be a strong fan base of dedicated supporters. This is where the Crocketteers fit in. It is our belief that to truly be a supporter of a club, any club, whether it is an USL or MLS team, you need to go to the matches and cheer on the boys on the pitch. The Crocketteers will take it a few steps further by chanting and singing for the good guys under the flags and banners of both our supporter and team colors. Now that is a true soccer supporter… or what we like to call a Crocketteer.
Our History
- The Crocketteers have been The premier supporter group for soccer in the San Antonio area for over a decade. We are an independent soccer supporters group based in San Antonio, Texas. The group was founded in March of 2009 by Michael Macias.
- By uniting soccer fans under one banner, the Crocketteers saw an opportunity to put San Antonio on the radar of professional soccer leagues/ownership groups looking for the next great city to expand the beautiful game to. The idea behind the group was to grow a strong membership base in the name of San Antonio professional soccer. As membership numbers rise, the city of San Antonio will rise above the rest in contention for a soccer franchise.
- Many Crocketteers hopes were fulfilled with the formation of the San Antonio Scorpions in October 2010 . Our group hosted tailgates, watch parties, and road trips for the Scorpions, United States Men’s National Team, the Texas Derby between MLS clubs FC Dallas and Houston Dynamo, World Cup, and now for the men’s professional team San Antonio Fútbol Club (SAFC) and the women’s San Antonio Athenians Soccer Club.
- The Crocketteers’ mission has always been – and will continue to be – to promote the sport of soccer in San Antonio, to support our professional soccer teams.

Did I hear Free?
Who doesn’t enjoy a good BBQ in the backyard with friends and family? We bring that experience to all of our pre-game tailgate parties throughout the year. Our tailgates take place from 4:00 pm to 6:30 pm (when gates open) prior to each Saturday home game of SAFC. The Crocketteers have been able to entertain between 150 and 600+ people with music, free food, free beer and free non-alcoholic drinks by partnering with sponsors like Alamo Beer Company, Tuff Dog Brewing, Southside Craft Soda and Douglas Soto.
Membership is not required to attend any of our festivities.
