VSI Tampa Bay FC was an American soccer team based in Plant City, Florida.
They played in USL Pro, the third tier of the American soccer pyramid, in the 2013 season.
VSI partnered with the local Brandon, Florida area youth soccer organization, West Florida Flames, to build VSI Tampa Flames, "the perfect platform for vertical progression, giving talented youngsters the opportunity to progress from junior soccer all the way through to the professional game," according to VSI's CEO, Simon Crane.
[5][6] VSI Tampa Bay chose Plant City Stadium as their home venue on April 4, 2013, moving all the teams there.
The remote stadium in Plant City made it difficult to attract fans, and the team suffered from competition from the more successful Tampa Bay Rowdies of the North American Soccer League.
