Two Teams Bringing the Heat (Literally)
Tip: Write down what you learned.
That's right, Florida boasts two MLS teams currently battling it out on the pitch. These aren't your average kick-around-in-the-park teams either. We're talking about professional athletes with fancy footwork and enough skill to make your head spin.
- Orlando City SC: This team, established in 2015, calls the Exploria Stadium home. Their passionate fans are known for creating an electric atmosphere, so get ready for some loud cheers (and maybe a few spilled margaritas).
- Inter Miami CF: This relatively new kid on the block (founded in 2020) plays in the stunning DRV PNK Stadium. Owned by former soccer superstar David Beckham, Inter Miami brings a touch of international flair to the Florida soccer scene.

Bonus: A Little Bit of Trivia (Because Why Not?)
Florida actually used to have two other MLS teams – the Tampa Bay Mutiny and the Miami Fusion – but they sadly folded in 2001. However, the return of Orlando City and the arrival of Inter Miami prove that Florida's love for the beautiful game is stronger than ever.
Tip: Review key points when done.
