Los Angeles Heat

Los Angeles Heat joined the Western Soccer Alliance in 1986. They joined the American Professional Soccer League in 1990 when the WSL merged with the American Soccer League, then folded in 1990. The club played in Torrance, California at West High School until their demise.

The club folded in early 1991 following a season of low attendance and the lack of a suitable stadium after an announced move to Orange County. The Heat had accumulated $30,000 in unpaid bills and were one of several APSL teams to fold.
