History
The club was founded in 2014 as Port City Football Club. Joao Johanning Mora, along with partners Joey Lipoff and Eion Dockery, formed Port City City FC as a semi-professional club as a nonprofit alternative for the North Carolina's northeastern coastal soccer community.[1] Port City FC plans to launch a Women’s Premier Soccer League (WPSL) expansion team this summer, embarking on an exhibition season with six to eight matches.[2]

Club culture
Logo
In 2025 Port City FC introduced a new logo that blended its earlier identity with a more modern, European-style presentation. The crest used a handcrafted anchor as its central feature, reflecting Wilmington's maritime heritage and serving as the club's defining visual element. The design maintained continuity with the previous emblem while adopting a more professional aesthetic similar to those used by MLS, USL, and leading European clubs. The placement of "NC" on each side of the anchor referenced both the state flag and the club's connection to North Carolina. The crest was intended to represent Wilmington's coastal character, its port-driven history, and its longstanding military presence. The club framed the emblem as versatile across different applications while still rooted in the region's identity and community traditions.[3]
