The Chargers were chartered members of the American Football League (AFL). They were founded in 1959. The following year, they started play.

At first, the Chargers played in Los Angeles. Consequently, they called themselves the Los Angeles Chargers. Then they moved to San Diego.  As a result of the move, they changed their name to the San Diego Chargers.

When the AFL and NFL merged in 1970, the Chargers became members of the NFL’s west division of the AFC.

Another big change for the Chargers happened in 2016. In that year, the Chargers moved back to Los Angeles. Due to the move, they renamed themselves the Los Angeles  Chargers.

While the Los Angeles Chargers currently play home games at Dignity Health Sports Park, they will share SoFi Stadium with the Los Angeles Rams from the 2020 NFL season.
