Queensboro FC (QBFC) was an American professional soccer club based in the borough of Queens in New York City. It was founded in November 2019,[5] and unveiled an official crest and color scheme on October 6, 2020.[6]
Its men's team was expected to make its debut as a 2021 expansion team in the USL Championship, the second division of professional soccer in the United States.[5][7] However, their start date was moved from the 2021 season to the 2022 season, and later to the 2023 season, before being cancelled altogether.[8][9]
The club did briefly field a women's team in the USL W League, a reserve team in the UPSL, and a youth team in the USL 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 division MLS Next Pro.
By the time New York City FC of Major League Soccer announced it had a deal to build a new stadium in Queens, Queensboro FC was reportedly defunct, with its website now forwarding to an unrelated commercial site. It never fielded a senior men's team.[10][11]
