Our Story
Resurgence began in 2015 as an idea amongst a few friends at a table in Brewhouse Café. The idea was to create an AUFC supporters group that passionately supported the club, the city, and the grassroots that support them both. Everything revolved around passion. Resurgence wanted to be the supporters in the stadium, week in and out. The plan was for everything to be accessible, from an easily-replicated logo for handmade flags to a diverse and forward-thinking board of directors.
After we unveiled a name and logo representative of Atlanta, Resurgence had high expectations going into the new season. All expectations were smashed before the first regular season match – a passionate group of 50 quickly became a passionate 700. Our tailgates stayed free and accessible to everyone. At home games, Resurgence pioneered Atlanta tifo design and brought flags to the culture of the Atlanta supporters section. For away games, Resurgence was the only AUFC SG to have representation at every match, making our name known across the country.
Passion extended out to the city as the group amassed hundreds of volunteer hours with local organizations, such as Soccer in the Streets, Meals on Wheels – Atlanta, New American Pathways, and MedShare, among others. As Resurgence has grown, our group remains as accessible as intended from day one. In pouring rain, in beating heat, in victory and in loss, Resurgence will be loud, passionate, and dedicated to our club, our community and the culture of soccer.
Our Creed
We Are Resurgence
You see us in the streets every day, you hear us marching to the stadium on match days, and you’ll find us surrounding the drums in the stands. What do we sing for? We sing songs of a city defined by its resurgence; by change, progress, and diversity. A city that embraces all, despite the differences in our walks of life. We are brought together by a passion for our club, for our city, and for our culture.
We sing songs of glory, during victory and defeat. Through thick and thin, through highs and lows, our voices will not waiver. When we shout, we shout united as one. We sing songs of a club, representative of the city which has become home to us all; no longer identified as natives or transplants, now united as Atlantans. If supporters are the heart of the club, then we are the heartbeat. We support our city through service, giving our time and resources to be present where our city needs us.
When we march, we march united as one.
Where the club goes, we follow.
Hail United.
