History

Northern Virginia United FC was founded in 2018 by Brian Welsh and Chris Jennings.[1] They joined the fourth-tier National Premier Soccer League and playing out of Evergreen Sportsplex in Leesburg, Virginia.[2][3] Their original crest reflected the area's aviation history and status as an Internet hub.[4] However, the crest eventually change to include a lion, a homage to Brian Welsh's former club in Scotland, Dundee United.[5] They played their first match on June 1, 2018, defeating FC Frederick by a score of 2–1.[6]

In 2019, the Northern Virginia United Youth Academy was formed.[7] The academy joined the Super Y League in 2021.[8][9]

In 2020, they added a club in the fifth-tier United Premier Soccer League, while continuing to operate their NPSL side.[10] However, their debut in the UPSL was delayed as they were unable to compete in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[11]

In March 2021, NVUFC announced a partnership with Scottish Premiership club Dundee United F.C.[7] The partnership's formation was due in part due to Brian Welsh, the owner and manager of NVUFC, being a former longtime player for Dundee United.[12][13] The partnership will allow for the sharing of resources, with players and coaches being able to travel for training experiences between the two clubs.[14] As part of the partnership, NVUFC rebranded their logo to align with the Dundee United crest, adopting the tangerine color and logo brand assets.[15] current status is unknown as they werent announced for the upcoming NPSL Mid Atlantic division 2024 season.
