On November 10, 2022, MLS Next Pro announced that a new independent club from North Carolina would join the league in 2024. The club was to be led by Eddie Pope as its Chief Sporting Director and owned by Megan Oglesby, Matt Penley, and Mark Penley. Their announced home venue, Truist Point, would undergo renovations to increase the seating capacity to 5,000.[1][2][3][4][5]
Carolina ended their inaugural season with 12 wins, 12 losses, and four draws with three penalty shootout victories. Head coach Roy Lassiter was relieved of his duties following the season.[6] He would be replaced by Donovan Ricketts during the offseason.[7]
