History

Flames United Sports Club was founded in January 2010. The team won its first league league championship in 2015. The club also finished the Excellence Division, a competition between the top teams from the islands of Sint Maarten, Saint Martin and St. Barths, as champions in 2013 and runners-up in 2012.

In January 2016 it was announced that the Flames United squad would play as the Sint Maarten national football team during 2017 Caribbean Cup qualification after winning the league championship for the recently-concluded season. However, shortly thereafter it was reported that the previous report was inaccurate and that Flames United would actually be competing in CFU Club Championship for the first time.

The club participated in the 2017 CFU Club Championship. They were drawn into Group E with all matches being played at Victoria Park in Kingstown, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines.
