The 2013 Los Angeles Blues season was the club's 4th season, and their 4th season playing in the third division of the USL Pro.
The season was the final season that the team was named the Los Angeles Blues, as the club rebranded to Orange County Blues FC, to represent the county they played in, Orange County. Additionally, it was the final season that the club played in Titan Stadium on the campus of Cal State Fullerton, due to the team changing their grounds to Anteater Stadium in Irvine.[1]
During the middle of the season, the Blues experienced a coaching change, as Jesus Rico-Sanz departed the club fourteen matches into the season. He was subsequently replaced by head coach Dariush Yazdani, who led the team to a record of 11-7-8 record and the 6th seed, qualifying for the playoffs.[2] However, they were eliminated by the Charleston Battery 2–1.[3]
