The National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) is proud to announce that Boca Raton Football Club (Boca Raton, FL) has joined the league as an expansion team. The club will compete in the South Region’s Sunshine Conference.
“We are extremely excited to have Boca Raton FC as part of the NPSL,” NPSL Chairman Joe Barone commented. “They bring a very professional organization and a proven brand to one of our strongest conferences. We are thrilled to again be growing the game in Florida.”
Boca Raton FC is led by President Douglas Heizer and player/brand ambassador Marcio Amoroso.
“We are aiming on being a competitive club in the difficult Sunshine Conference,” Heizer added. “We know that there are many amazing clubs in our conference but hope to stay competitive and give a professional experience to not only our fans, but also all the visiting teams that play us in Boca Raton.”
Boca Raton Football Club most recently played in the American Premier Soccer League (APSL), where the team has won two straight league championships in 2015 and 2016. Founded in 2015, Boca Raton has found success in its infant stages and has played international friendlies with the Jamaican National Team, the New York Cosmos, and European powerhouse Shakhtar Donetsk. Boca Raton FC also has its High-Performance Academy as well as a partnership with Barcelona Elite, which gives Boca Raton a complete soccer pyramid effect that starts when a child is seven years old until they are ready to turn professional.
“We hold ourselves to the highest standards and we hope to continue that in the NPSL,” Heizer concluded. “We also have a strong marketing team which we hope will be helpful for not only our club, but also the rest of the conference with our deep reach in other countries such as Brazil and Spain.”
