Rhode Island Reds FC was established in 2012 as a semi-professional men's soccer team competing in the Atlantic Conference (Northeast Region) of NPSL, the fourth-tier soccer league in the United States. The crest, designed with ties to the state and flag, features the state's bird—a Rhode Island Red—surrounded by thirteen stars to symbolize Rhode Island becoming the thirteenth state in the union and includes an anchor at the bottom symbolizing the state motto: hope.

The Reds were planned to participate in the 2020 NPSL season, however it was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Once the league returned a year later, the Reds were not listed as a participant of the 2021 NPSL season and have not played a professional match since, leaving their future in question.
