The club was established on May 1, 2009, through the merger of two existing youth soccer clubs: the New England Eagles FC and FC PUMA.[3] The organization later expanded its structure in May 2014 by merging with the Black Watch Premier Soccer Club, though it continued to operate under the NEFC name.[4] NEFC is a not-for-profit entity focused on player development and college placement, training over 3,000 youth players across Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island.[5] The club's colors are red, navy, and white.
NEFC announced its entry into USL League Two in late 2024, debuting for the 2025 season to provide a pre-professional pathway for its players.[6] The club plays its home matches at Worcester Polytechnic Institute's Alumni Stadium.
