Current season

Ottawa Fury Football Club is a Canadian professional soccer club based in Ottawa, Ontario. Founded in 2011, and named on February 26, 2013, the team made its debut in the North American Soccer League in 2014. It also competes for the Canadian Championship. The team will join the United Soccer League in 2017 and will be the affiliate of the Major League Soccer club Montreal Impact.

During the spring of its first season, the franchise played at Keith Harris Stadium at Carleton University, before moving to TD Place Stadium in Lansdowne Park. Their first game there was on July 20, 2014, against the New York Cosmos.

On June 20, 2011 NASL announced that an Ottawa expansion team would join the league once the stadium is ready in 2014. The Ottawa Sports and Entertainment Group (OSEG) was named as the ownership group of the club. The team replaced Ottawa Fury SC, of the USL PDL, in 2014. The women's W League team folded after the 2014 season but the other level programs continue. On December 15, 2014, Ottawa announced that they would be adding their academy teams to the third-tier Première Ligue de soccer du Québec for the upcoming season.

In the 2015 season, the team won the Fall championship, and reached the Soccer Bowl, where they lost to the New York Cosmos.
