New York Magic is an American women’s soccer team, founded in 1997. The team is an original member of United Women's Soccer. They played in the USL W-League from 1997 until the league folded after the 2015 season.
The team plays its home games at Iona College in New Rochelle, New York. The club's colors are red, black and white.
