Vancouver Whitecaps FC is a soccer team based in Vancouver, Canada, that plays in Major League Soccer (MLS) and other soccer competitions. The team's original namesake played in the North American Soccer League from 1974 to 1984. The club was revived two years later as the Vancouver 86ers and later the Whitecaps from 2001 onward, playing in the second division of American soccer for most of their existence. An MLS expansion team was awarded to Vancouver and began play in 2011 under the Whitecaps name. In addition to league play, Vancouver also competes in annual domestic and international tournaments and can qualify for the CONCACAF Champions Cup.
