Atlanta’s new National Women’s Soccer League expansion team, Atlanta City FC, unveils its name and crest ahead of its planned 2028 debut season. The club is positioned to begin playing in the NWSL in 2028.
Multiple outlets describe the branding as featuring a phoenix-inspired crest. CBS Sports adds that the crest is paired with signature “Georgia Peach” colors and that the team’s launch is tied to playing at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. The outlets frame the announcement as part of the club’s preparation for entering the league.
One discrepancy appears in the provided CBS Sports listing, which includes an apparent date error (“ahead of 2018 debut”) despite also stating a 2028 launch. Aside from that inconsistency, the outlets agree on the core details: the team’s name and crest and the target 2028 start.
