[edit] History
Queen City FC was started by a few former professional and former college players looking for a side to support in the Greater Buffalo Area.

Queen City FC started with the idea to have only a men's side competing in the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) North Eastern Conference. Since the original planning of the club that started in 2005, QCFC has added a youth academy, created an afterschool program in conjunction with the Buffalo Public School system called Kick Smarts and have now added a Field Hockey club and are planning on adding a Lacrosse club to the ranks.
