Queensboro FC (QBFC) was an American professionalsoccer club based in the borough ofQueens inNew York City. It was founded in November 2019,[6] and unveiled an official crest and color scheme on October 6, 2020.[7]

Its men's team was originally announced as a 2021expansion team in theUSL Championship, thesecond division of professional soccer in the United States.[6][8] However, their start date was moved from the 2021 season to the 2022 season, and later to the 2023 season, before being cancelled altogether.[9][10]

The club did briefly field a women's team in theUSL W League, a reserve team in theUPSL, and a youth team in theUSL Academy. The W League and UPSL teams withdrew from their respective leagues following the end of their 2022 seasons.

The men's team was removed from the USL website entirely as of November 2022, and it was reported that they were instead considering applying to play in the third divisionMLS Next Pro.

By the timeNew York City FC ofMajor League Soccer announced it had a deal to build a new stadium in Queens, Queensboro FC was reportedly defunct, with its website forwarding to an unrelated commercial site. It never fielded a senior men's team.[11][12]

Colors and badge

[edit]
QBFC's branding incorporated theIRT Flushing Line's distinctive purple

The club's badge was designed by theCarbone Smolan Agency, which also released a 110-page explainer document detailing the inspiration and design process.[7][13] The badge featured a distinctive shade of bright purple inspired by the color of the7 train, crowned with an abstract depiction of theQueensboro Bridge in the shape of a crown.[14]

The home uniform for QBFC's teams in the W League and UPSL was a purple-and-black striped jersey, paired with black shorts and socks. The away uniform was a white jersey with a purple pattern, paired with white shorts and socks. It was planned that the men's team would wear the same kits, had it actually taken the field.

Stadium

[edit]

The women's and youth teams played atAviator Sports and Events Center in theMarine Park neighborhood of southeastBrooklyn.

On April 27, 2021, the club announced plans to construct a 7,500-seat stadium on the campus ofYork College inJamaica, Queens as a temporary home before building a permanent stadium elsewhere in the borough.[15][16][17] With construction planned to start in summer 2022, it would have been the firstsoccer-specific stadium in New York City.[16] By June 2023, the proposed stadium had been "nixed" and York College had instead broken ground on its own soccer and track & field complex, on a different plot of campus land.[12][18]
