I've searched the site, maybe just not looking in the right place, and cant find the answer so I figured I'd ask.
I do know that Team 57 is a group of people that enjoy fishing and helping out the community but what exactly is the origin of the name? Just curious.

Yea know Mike I've wondered the same thing for quite a few years now, just too chicken to ask. Glad you did.
I thought maybe it was a reference to the 57 freeway, that's all I could come up with.....

"Family, Friends, Fun & Fishing". That's what its all about.
To me personally it also means if you see someone wearing a TEAM57 shirt they are more than likely going to help you out if you ask, give you advice, make sure you have the right set up/tackle, hand a bent rod to your kid or help put you on some fish.
See you on the water,

Fifty-seven is the sixteenth discrete semiprime and the sixth in the (3.q) family. With 58 it forms the fourth discrete bi-prime pair. 57 has an aliquot sum of 23 and is the first composite member of the 23-aliquot tree. Although 57 is not prime, it is jokingly known as the "Grothendieck prime" after a story in which Grothendieck advances it as an example of a particular prime number.[1]
As a semiprime, 57 is a Blum integer since its two prime factors are both Gaussian primes.
57 is a 20-gonal number. It is a Leyland number since 25 + 52 = 57.
57 is a repdigit in base 7 (111).
The exceptional simple Lie group, E8, can be expressed as the symmetries of a 57-dimensional object.
