Proudly representing the 954 • Supporters of @FTLStrikers (RIP) • Created @HimmarsheeFC • “A front for anti-MLS activity” since 2010 😂#DefendTheFort#FTLTID
🗣️ After 11 years as a pro, eight clubs represented and over 14,000 minutes played, midfielder PC announces today his retirement from the game, effective immediately.
Thank you for all you've given us this season and your leadership on and off the pitch. 🖤🤍

🚨NEWS!!🚨
It's @FTLUTD MATCH WEEK!
Yes, you read that correctly.
The club's *MEN'S* U20 @USL_Academy side is at home vs @TheMiamiFC THIS SATURDAY, 7PM at AutoNation Field at NSU!!
They actually won their first game 7-0 this past weekend!
Come on out & support!
#FTLUTD
Every so often, you go 4 hrs to see your club blow a 2-0 lead on the road, then your bus breaks down on the side of the Skyway bridge, then the team bus saves the day, then 10 mins later *that* bus catches on fire, then you all get back on the 1st dodgy bus & barely make it home
Mark your calendars! On Sunday, September 29, witness Fort Lauderdale United FC in a historic clash with @dallastrinityfc in our electrifying home opener. This is your chance to be part of a historic moment. Grab your tickets today and be there when history is made! https://t.co/S8yMztutFI 🩵

Give the ECC a follow!
F19 is staying lost in the Bermuda Triangle so to speak, (but the original F19 banner might make an appearance at the first FTLUTD match for old times' sake).
Go help write the next chapter in FTL's great soccer history!

Happy 113th Birthday to @FTLCityNews !
To celebrate the 100th Birthday in 2011, we launched @FTLStrikers (pic below)
To celebrate the 113th Birthday we’re launching our new Supporters Group to back @FTLUTD in @USLSuperLeague
More details on ECC to come soon!

The planes in that photo are TBM Avengers, the torpedo bombers based at Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale, five of which famously disappeared in the Flight 19 incident, which inspired the name of our group way back in 2010.
A bit serendipitous that FTL is getting its own pro soccer club again at NSU via @FTLUTD.
In this 1945 photo of NASFL (now FLL Airport), you can see an auxiliary training runway complex in the distance. That's where NSU is today. Remnants of those runways still exist.
It ain't red & gold. Nothing can ever replace what we lost.
But it's ✦FORT LAUDERDALE✦
We hope everyone in the 954 will get out and support our new women's D1 club!
Let's get the gang back together this August.

FTL isn't just Fort Lauderdale's initials; it's a symbol of our unity & diversity. Our crest reflects our canals & the sun's glint on our waters, while our colors pay homage to our iconic beaches. #WEAREFTL https://t.co/v0eudmx7XT🌞⚽🌊
@wtf_flex Would have been super cool but the trademarks have changed hands again, who knows what happens with it.
Can understand the women’s club wanting to start fresh too. They get to write the first (serious, not counting magicJack lol) page in that FTL ⚽️ history book
@wtf_flex Not inspiring that the Twitter handle was apparently created right after team was announced in November. Seems like fan input was not taken into account at all when it comes to name.
But with a generic name we can nickname them whatever we want lol
Thrilled to work alongside polo icon @nachofigueras and @DelfiBF to bring the @USLSuperLeague and @USLChampionship to Palm Beach County and grow the game for women and men across the region. https://t.co/8TGAUXw7J3
