About Newtown Pride FC

Newtown Pride FC is a pro-am soccer team out of Sandy Hook, Connecticut. The team was founded in 1998 by father and son Mike and Matt Svanda.


In 2019, the team won the National Amateur Cup for the first time in its history, becoming the second team from Connecticut, and first since 1967, to win the Cup. The team beat New Jersey sides Jackson Lions and Cedar Stars Academy to reach the USASA Region I Final against Steel FC (Pennsylvania), which the team won 2–0. In the National Final, the Pride beat RWB Adria (Illinois) in the semifinal before beating Horizon FC (Texas), 4–0, and won both the trophy and $15,000.


The team became the second National Amateur Champion to directly qualify for the U.S. Open Cup after U.S. Soccer had started the practice with the 2018 Champions Milwaukee Bavarian SC. Newtown were due to enter the 2020 U.S. Open Cup in the first round alongside local qualifiers and teams from both the National Premier Soccer League and USL League Two.


As National Amateur Cup Champions, Newtown also secured a spot in the 2020 Hank Steinbrecher Cup.


In August 2019, then-U.S. Soccer Federation President Carlos Cordeiro announced that Newtown will also host the winners of the 2019 UEFA Regions' Cup, Dolny Śląsk, in the inaugural International Amateur Cup. The game was originally set to take place on May 19, 2020, but was later postponed to May 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
