Orlando City B (or OCB for short) is an American soccer club that began play in 2016 and currently plays in MLS Next Pro. Owned by Orlando City SC and based at the Orlando City training facility in Kissimmee, the club plays its home games at Osceola County Stadium.[1]
The club played in multiple leagues, beginning with the United Soccer League, the second tier of the US soccer pyramid in 2016 and 2017,[2] before electing to forgo the 2018 season and join the newly formed third division, USL League One, in its inaugural 2019 season.[3] After another season on hiatus in 2021, the team became an inaugural member of MLS Next Pro.
