The Golden Scarf is awarded by Seattle Sounders FC to "honor members of [the Seattle] community who are either part of the soccer scene or have done remarkable things for society in Seattle."[1] It was renamed in honor of former majority owner Joe Roth in 2019.[2]

During the pre-game ceremonies of the inaugural home match of the Sounders, a Golden Scarf emblazoned with the team name was awarded to MLS commissioner Don Garber.[3] This began a tradition where, before each home game, the club likewise honors a member of the community who has contributed to soccer or society more generally in the Seattle area.
The recipient and the fans then raise their scarves over their heads together. The presenter of the Golden Scarf, usually a representative of the club's owners, is also acknowledged as part of the ceremony.[2]
