San Jose Earthquakes is an American professional soccer club based in the San Jose suburb of Santa Clara, California which competes in Major League Soccer (MLS), the top professional soccer league in the United States of America and Canada.

The team is one of the ten charter members of MLS which competed in the league's first season in 1996 (originally as San Jose Clash), and took part in the first game in MLS history, defeating D.C. United 1 � 0. Following the conclusion of the 2005 MLS season the franchise was officially put on hiatus and the players, head coach Dominic Kinnear and some of his coaching staff were moved to Houston, Texas where they became the Houston Dynamo. After a two-year absence, the Earthquakes resumed play for the 2008 season

The team has won two MLS Cup titles, in 2001 and 2003, and one MLS Supporters' Shield, in 2005.

They currently play home games at Buck Shaw Stadium in Santa Clara, California, and are coached by former Canadian international and English Premier League player Frank Yallop.
