History
For the past decade, Joe Balsamo has been running summer soccer camps and international tours. Originally known as FA Eurocamp, the goal of the program was to bring top European coaches to the United States to train American players and to expose them to the European soccer model. After expanding the program to include camps in New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and Florida, Balsamo began offering tours for youth players. On these tours, FA Eurocamp escorted American teams through Europe and South America as they played exhibition matches against youth teams at the world’s top clubs. Since the Club's birth in 2013, FA Euro has grown from a small organization consisting of three staff members and only one team into a household name in US Youth Soccer. FA Euro New York was announced as a semi-professional men's team when the PDL released its 2013 schedule.

Stadium
FA Euro New York's USL League Two team played its home matches at Belson Stadium, on the campus of St. John's University in Queens, New York from 2013 to 2018. For the 2018 season, the club moved its home matches to the Aviator Sports and Events Center in Brooklyn. In 2019, the Club moved to the Dyker Heights campus of Poly Prep Country Day School.

In 2021, the club played the majority of their home games at Calvert Vaux Park, though their first home game was played at Central Park's Field #2.
