Lionsbridge FC

The original founders include Mike Vest, Kevin Joyce, and Dan Chenoweth, all of whom are Virginia Peninsula residents. Lionsbridge FC announced its launch on June 9, 2017, via a social media release. At the time of the team's announcement, the club invited fans to help determine its crest via a fan vote on social media. More than 600 people voted and the team unveiled the winning design in July 2017. The crest integrates four identifying features of the Virginia Peninsula - the Lions Bridge, the team's location and launch year, the James and York Rivers, and the region's importance as a hub of the United States military.

Lionsbridge FC announced its league affiliation (Premier Development League) and TowneBank Stadium (then known as Pomoco Stadium) agreement (with Christopher Newport University) during a press conference on November 14, 2017.

The club named Chris Whalley as its first head coach on February 14, 2018.

On May 5, 2018, Lionsbridge FC played their inaugural game against Evergreen FC at the Evergreen Sportsplex, which ended in 1-1 draw, with Jalon Brown scoring the first goal in the club's history.

Lionsbridge finished their first season in the PDL South Atlantic Division in 3rd place, recording 4 wins, 5 draws, and 5 losses.

In 2019, the PDL was rebranded into USL League Two as Lionsbridge continued to grow in popularity. The club broke a record for single-game attendance on July 3, 2019 against Tri-Cities Otters, drawing a crowd of 3,235, which was the largest attendance in USL League Two in 2019. On July 9, Lionsbridge FC played against a professional team for the first time in their history, losing 0-5 to the Richmond Kickers in a friendly. LBFC finished the 2019 season in 5th place, with 5 wins, 3 draws, and 6 losses.

The 2020 season was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Lionsbridge FC experienced a marked improvement in the 2021 season. They finished 2nd in the South Atlantic Division, qualifying for the playoffs for the first time in the club's history. Attendance also continued to rise, with a new record set on July 3, 2021, when 3,417 people watched a 6-0 victory against Tobacco Road FC. Lionsbridge FC was eliminated in the Southern Conference Playoffs Quarterfinal with a 0-2 loss against Tormenta FC 2.

For the 2022 season, USL League Two underwent a restructuring, and Lionsbridge FC was placed in the Chesapeake Division. This season proved to be their most successful yet, as they went undefeated in the league and won the Chesapeake Division title, the first league title in the club's history. Their season record of 12 wins and 2 draws also meant they were crowned the USL League Two Regular Season title. The attendance record was once again broken on July 3, 2022, when 3,547 people came out to watch Lionsbridge FC defeat Virginia Beach United in the Coastal Virginia Challenge Cup.

In 2023, Lionsbridge FC successfully defended their Chesapeake Division title and also won the Eastern Conference title for the first time in the clubs history.
