History

The club began operations as a semi-professional side that was part of the inaugural season of NISA Nation, as well as the Premier division of UPSL.

[3]

Stadium

For their inaugural season in NISA, Club de Lyon will play its home matches in Daytona Beach, Florida, at Daytona Stadium. [4]
