Inspired by Chicano Park in Barrio Logan, the t-shirt is designed to showcase the artwork along the walking path located in the city’s oldest Mexican-American neighborhood. The hat features custom accents, including a woven La Ola patch on the front, a Wave FC patch on the brim and custom inside taping. Chicano Federation: In addition to the Chicano Federation receiving proceeds from the Wave’s La Ola merchandise collection, the Wave will also be hosting children from the Chicano Federation’s summer soccer camp. The Wave and players, including Clairemont native Melanie Barcenas, went to the youth soccer camp to meet the children that will be in attendance, and will provide a high-five tunnel as the players enter the field. In 2022, the Chicano Federation provided 27,000 families with child-centered services, nearly 5.5 million healthy meals and over 1,000 people connected to resources at the new Community Resource Center. Pregame Presentation: DJ Seize will set the atmosphere in-stadium ahead of the match with Latin hits for the night. The Wavemaker of the match will be Christine Chavez, who is a civil rights activist, grassroots community organizer and the granddaughter of the American labor leader, Cesar Chavez. After performing at the Fiesta Futbolera, Mariachi Internacional San Diego will continue their entertainment and perform the night’s national anthem on the pitch. Halftime Performance: Rumba y Soul, a live salsa band based in San Diego, will entertain the crowd during halftime, taking place on the Turf Pad in the north end of the stadium. The band is known to bring musical fusion that brings together the fiery spirit of Latin rhythms and the soulful energy of its talented members. Chula Vista High Schools Ballet Folklórico will be in the same location while performing with traditional folk dances of Mexico. In addition, one lucky fan will have the chance to compete in a 100-foot shot challenge, presented by SDGE.
