Sycuan Casino Resort and San Diego FC Launch SDFC Club Sycuan Card to Deepen Fan Connections
Sycuan Casino Resort and San Diego FC introduced the SDFC Club Sycuan Card, available exclusively at the resort for those 21 and older with valid ID. Benefits include discounted tickets to select matches and tours of the Sharp HealthCare Performance Center. The card extends their 2024 partnership with Sycuan as Founding Chrome Club and Official Tribal Gaming Partner.
SCCG Take — Tribal gaming operators can use sports team tie-ins like this to drive targeted visitation and community ties. Similar deals may surface as leagues and casinos seek mutually reinforcing fan engagement channels.
San Diego FC and Sycuan Casino Resort have introduced the SDFC Club Sycuan Card, a membership program designed to give fans additional ways to engage with the Major League Soccer club on match days.
The card is available exclusively at Sycuan Casino Resort. Applicants can sign up in person at the property’s Club Sycuan Desk or apply online. Enrollment is restricted to individuals aged 21 and older, and applicants must present a valid government-issued photo ID.
Cardholder Benefits and Access
Cardholders will receive discounted single-match tickets to select SDFC matches. The card also gives holders the option to schedule a tour of the club’s training facility, the Sharp HealthCare Performance Center, which is located at Singing Hills Golf Club. These features create direct links between the casino property and the soccer club’s match-day and behind-the-scenes activities.
Details of the 2024 Partnership
The card forms part of a multi-year partnership between San Diego FC and Sycuan Casino Resort that was established in 2024. Sycuan holds the designations of Founding Chrome Club Partner and Official Tribal Gaming Partner for the club.
“As the Founding Chrome Club Partner and Official Tribal Gaming Partner, we’re pleased to provide fans with new ways to engage with the club, both on and off the pitch. The SDFC Club Sycuan Card is another way we’re bringing the community together and creating meaningful opportunities for connection,” said Rob Cinelli, General Manager of Sycuan Casino Resort and Singing Hills Golf Club. The program, according to Yogonet International, ties the casino’s location and resources directly to the club’s fan outreach efforts without adding external elements.

Tribal casinos are turning sports sponsorships into traffic drivers with exclusive fan perks tied directly to property visits.
We've connected tribal gaming partners into dozens of league and venue deals. This card model shows how sponsors can extract real ROI — not just brand exposure — by forcing the fan journey through casino doors. Smart operators will study this playbook and ask how their sports spend drives measurable visitation.
- SDFC Club Sycuan Card available only at the resort, 21+ with ID required
- Benefits: discounted match tickets, training facility tours at Singing Hills
- Extends Sycuan's 2024 role as Founding Chrome Club and Official Tribal Gaming Partner
SCCG angle: SCCG has placed tribal clients into professional sports partnerships across MLS, NBA, and regional leagues. When a sponsor asks us how to turn signage into foot traffic, we show them this: build the benefit redemption into the property visit, make enrollment exclusive to the floor, and tie perks to experiences fans already want.
