Virginia Beach City FC
Virginia Beach City Football Club is an American professional soccer club based in Norfolk, Virginia playing in the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) in the Mid-Atlantic Conference of the Northeast Region. The club was founded in 2013 and held its inaugural season in 2014 with their first regular season match on May 17.
Since their formation, they have finished in the top three in the Mid-Atlantic Conference every season. They won the title as the 2017 NPSL Mid-Atlantic Regular Season Champions with an undefeated season, as well as qualifying for two playoff seeds in 2015 and 2017. The club also partakes in the U.S. Open Cup competition via qualification, and did so in 2015.
Virginia Beach City FC announced November 26, 2018 it will upgrade its current semi-professional men's soccer team to field a professional men's soccer team in the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) in 2019 joining the Richmond Kickers and Loudoun United as the only other professional soccer teams based in Virginia competing on a national stage. Virginia Beach City FC is the first soccer club in Hampton Roads to provide the full player development pyramid from youth and amateur to professional on a year-round basis. Virginia Beach City FC has a developmental affiliation with Major League Soccer's D.C. United.
The centerpiece of the crest is Neptune's trident, inspired by the 34-foot cast bronze Neptune statue on the Virginia Beach boardwalk. The navy blue and gold are a nod to the city that is home to one of the United States' biggest naval bases. The insignia that recognizes Navy SEALs is a gold trident.
The crest was made by graphic designer Matthew Wolff, who has since designed the current crests for Los Angeles FC, New York City FC, Charleston Battery, Union Omaha, FC Tulsa, and Oakland Roots.
On February 21, 2018, Virginia Beach City FC and Adidas announced an extension to their long-term partnership through 2021 making Adidas the official supplier for the club.
The team plays at the Powhatan Field which is a stadium built in 2005 and seats 2,800; located in Norfolk, Virginia. VB City FC moved to Powhatan Field on March 1, 2019; leaving its former home in Virginia Beach Sportsplex which had been home to the club since its inception. VB City cited the move was due to both aiming to become a more centralized club to the Hampton Roads area and the safety that the new turf at Powhatan Field provided to the players.
Neptune's Armada are the local supporters for the club and can be seen attending matches and chanting songs for the whole ninety-minute duration of the match. The Armada has an affiliation with Virginia Beach's chapter of The American Outlaws. The group is led by long time City supporter Andrew Cowan.
