FC Miami City (FCMC) is an American soccer club based in South Florida. They play in the USL League Two, the fourth division of the United States soccer league system.

The club consists of both men and women teams competing in the United Soccer League (USL) and the youth academy of Paris Saint-Germain in the United States.

FC Miami City's men and women teams, as well as the Paris Saint-Germain Academy USA teams, are deeply connected on and off the pitch. The club's culture results in a strong positive environment, such a strong and united community, which leads to players and staff collaborating to enable the youth to get on the professional path.

History

[edit]

Since 2014, FC Miami City is a fully affiliated member of the United Soccer League (USL), North America's largest professional soccer organization that oversees the USL Championship, USL League One, USL League Two, USL W, and USL Academy.

In 2021, FC Miami City joined the USL Academy where young players are provided opportunities to compete in a platform with professional standards to develop and gain experience to reach their club' USL first team and gain exposure needed to succeed at the next level.

At the start of 2022, FC Miami entered the USL W League, the nation's premier women's development league, as co-founder. Entering the league established the club's commitment to developing the next generation of young female talent by bringing elite women's soccer to South Florida. For future generations of women soccer players, the league provides exposure opportunities both on and off the field, and strengthen the women's soccer pipeline between collegiate and professional soccer.
