The Southern California Striders (also SoCal Striders or SC Striders) is a track and field athletics club based in Los Angeles, California. From its foundation in 1955 through the 1980s it was an elite club producing numerous national and Olympic champions. For a time in the 1970s it was called the Tobias Striders for sponsorship reasons. From the 1990s to 2006 the club was restricted to masters athletics and still produces national champions in older age classes. After 2006 it became a nonprofit open to all ages.

  • Die Southern California Striders sind ein amerikanischer Leichtathletikverein mit Schwerpunkt in Los Angeles. Bei den Striders trafen und treffen sich die vorherigen Gegner der UCLA und USC. Sie wurden ursprünglich 1955 von fünf Spitzensportlern gegründet, nämlich Mal Whitfield, George Rhoden, Meredith Gourdine, Lang Stanley und George Brown. Zu der Zeit gab es nur wenige Leichtathletikvereine, da kaum jemand nach dem College weiter mit einer wenig lukrativen Sportart wie Leichtathletik als Spitzensport weiter betreiben wollte. Die Striders bestanden fast nur aus Spitzensportlern (Frauen spielten damals im amerikanischen Collegesport keine Rolle und damit auch nicht im Nach-College Spitzensport), sodass sie „America’s finest Olympic Track and Field Stars“ genannt wurden.Zwischen 1957 und 1 (de)
