History

The team was part of the larger Williamsburg Soccer Club, a thriving amateur sports association serving the local community founded in 1976. In 2001, the club joined the United Soccer Leagues, creating a team franchised in the Premier Development League. The team was known as Williamsburg Legacy until January 2007, when Williamsburg Soccer Club merged with the nearby Colonial Football Club to form the Virginia Legacy Soccer Club. The PDL team then changed its name to Virginia Legacy to reflect the merge.

    “Universal history is the history of a few metaphors.”

    “You that would judge me do not judge alone
    This book or that, come to this hallowed place
    Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;

    Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
    And say my glory was I had such friends.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Psychology keeps trying to vindicate human nature. History keeps undermining the effort.”
