Liga Deportiva Alajuelense (LDA), commonly known as Alajuelense and nicknamed "La Liga," is a Costa Rican multisport club based in Alajuela, Costa Rica. The club is best known for its football team, which competes in the Primera División de Costa Rica, the top tier of Costa Rican football. This unofficial Liga Deportiva Alajuelense fan flag (Spanish: bandera no oficial de Liga Deportiva Alajuelense) features the club's official emblem centered on a red-and-black horizontally striped background, a design inspired by the club's iconic color identity and traditional visual style.
The club's emblem is based on a pointed shield design divided into two distinct sections. The upper portion of the shield is solid red and prominently displays the white initials "L," "D," and "A," representing Liga Deportiva Alajuelense. The lower section is filled with vertical red-and-black stripes, reflecting the club's traditional colors and strong visual identity. Centered within this striped area is a large white five-pointed star, one of the most recognizable elements of the crest. The star symbolizes excellence, achievement, and the club's historic success in Costa Rican football. The combination of sharp shield contours, bold contrasting colors, and simple geometric elements creates a powerful and timeless emblem. Altogether, the crest reflects Alajuelense's tradition, competitive spirit, and enduring prominence in Costa Rican football.
