Introducing you to Toronto FC Supporters Clubs

Toronto FC is one of the most popular clubs in the MLS and many of us can thank the huge support of the fans in embracing the club since its inception but we can not forget the supporter clubs and the influence that they have had on the club and the energy that the bring to BMO Field, one of the rowdier if not rowdiest in the whole league. There are currently four main supporter clubs that you will see in sections around the stadium and at times out on the road with the club as they make their way throughout the season.

The four main supporters clubs are:

The Red Patch Boys: The group is named in homage to the veterans of the "1st Canadian Infantry Division" of the second world war. The majority of their members call section 111 and 112 home and have nicknamed the sections "the bunker" they are loud and they are proud
