In a momentous chapter of sports history, Fort Lauderdale United FC proudly announces Felicia Knox as the pioneering signing, heralding the inception of a legacy as the 2024 USL Super League season readies for its curtain raiser in August.

Additionally, Knox was selected by Angel City FC in the NWSL draft earlier this year, further solidifying her rise in women’s soccer.
Beyond the pitch, Knox’s strategic vision extends to her academic pursuits in hospitality management, with a focus on sports management and event planning. Her impressive juggling of academic and athletic commitments earned her the 2022 Academic All-American title, further cementing her reputation as a powerhouse both on and off the field.
As she steps onto the sunlit fields of South Florida, Knox is poised to be the cornerstone of Fort Lauderdale United FC, promising to weave her magic into the fabric of this nascent team and spearhead their journey to triumph in the upcoming season.
