Football team
Erie Sports Center
Club · United States · USL W League
Erie Sports Center FC plays in the Great Forest Division of USL W League's Central Conference. Its first season in the league, 2025, ended at the bottom of the table: 1 win, 8 losses and 1 draw, a 10-30 goal difference and 4 points — short of the playoffs.
Founded that same year, the team is the women's side of Erie Sports Center, a complex on Oliver Road in Erie, Pennsylvania, that also runs a men's team in USL League Two. The dome there is where both sides train; matches are played across town, at McConnell Family Stadium on the Gannon University campus, which holds 2,500.
The club has no crest of its own — it plays under the sports center's shared logo, and no colours or nickname turn up in any record. Pittsburgh Riveters SC is the opponent Erie has faced most often, sitting in the same division, though no named rivalry has grown out of the meetings; the fixture called the Pittsburgh Rivalry belongs to the Riveters and Steel City FC.
No roster from that season was made public, and no player has yet become the name people associate with the club.
