History

[edit]

On May 9, 2024, it was announced that Westchester, New York, had been granted a USL League One franchise, set to start playing in 2025.[1][2][3]

In June 2024, New York Jets quarterback Tyrod Taylor joined the club's ownership group.[4] The team unveiled their badge and opened season ticket deposits later that month.[5] On August 22, 2024, the first head coach in the club's history was announced as Dave Carton. Carton was formerly the Technical Director of fellow USL League One side Charlotte Independence.[6][7] Their first sponsor was also announced as Northwell Health.[8]
