[edit] History

Team Wellington was formed in 2004 by a consortium of Wellington soccer clubs to compete in the New Zealand Football Championship.

In the inaugural season (2004/2005) of the NZFC, Team Wellington performed below expectations, finishing sixth. They improved in the next season, since they finished 4th. Attendances at Newtown Park remain healthy (in New Zealand Soccer terms) averaging about 1000 spectators a game.
