"The groundbreaking is a historic moment for sports in the U.S.," Mansour said. The groundbreaking was attended by notables from the San Diego soccer scene, including Don Garber, the Major League Soccer commissioner, Mohamed Mansour, chairman of San Diego Football Club, and Manny Machado, a founding partner in the club and the San Diego Padres' third baseman. The future facility will be built on the Sycuan Reservation in El Cajon. “You can feel the history in this land and so I think our partners in Right to Dream and the Mansours recognize that from the beginning,” Martinez said. He said the facility is being built on sacred ground. The tribe is also a joint owner of the team. Martinez is also San Diego FC’s Vice-Chairman.
