Spokane Zephyr FC is an American professional women's soccer club based in Spokane, Washington, that competes in the USL Super League (USLS). [1] Zephyr FC is owned by Aequus Sports, which also operates Spokane Velocity FC of USL League One (USL1). [2]
Aequus Sports was granted a USL Super League franchise on May 16, 2023. [3] On November 4, 2023, the name and crest of the club were announced. [4] Zephyr FC played their inaugural match on August 17, 2024 against Fort Lauderdale United FC to a sold-out crowd on their home field at ONE Spokane Stadium, drawing 1-1. Emina Ekić scored the club's first goal off a penalty kick. [5] In their first season in the USL Super League, Zephyr FC finished 5th, missing out on the playoffs on the head-to-head tiebreaker. [6]
The team plays at ONE Spokane Stadium, a Downtown Spokane venue with over 5,000 seats. [7] [8]
The Zephyr name and primary colors—Basalt Black and Palouse Gold—refer to the Inland Northwest's geography. [2] [4] The Z in the logo is a reference to the west wind, that "sweeps in and reshapes the landscape." [9]
