History

The club was founded in 2018 by the Chattanooga Red Wolves to serve as one of their affiliate clubs.[4] The Park City Red Wolves were formed at the same time, as another affiliate.[5][6] Both affiliates would operate as U23 teams and play in the fourth tier USL League Two.[7][8] Dalton plans to use primarily local talent to make up their roster.[9] They finished 3rd in the Deep South division in their inaugural season, missing out on the opportunity to qualify for the 2020 U.S. Open Cup.[10] The club will be moving to a new stadium in nearby East Ridge, Tennessee when construction finishes.[11]
