The club was founded in 2013 through the merger of Kings Soccer Academy with Hammer FC, but its roots go back to 1993.[1] They have won a US National Youth championship.[2]

In 2020, they added a U23 team in the Ohio Valley Premier League,[3] winning the league's inaugural season in the Fall of 2020.[4] In 2021, they joined USL League Two, the top amateur division in the United States, while still planning to operate their OVPL team.[5][6]
