History

The New York City team became known as the Magpies when Richard Stremski, club historian of the Collingwood Football Club, furnished the fledgling club with footballs and guernseys. The Magpies and Collingwood FC have been affiliated ever since.
The club is also affiliated with the Magpies in the SANFL, where some New York club players have enjoyed scholarships to play with the Port Adelaide club in Australia.
About half of the players of the New York Magpies team are Australian.
The New York Magpies won the Men's Division 1 & 4 USAFL National Championships Grand Final in 2010 and Division 1 in 2014.
