History of the Miami SC
Inter Miami CF is a professional soccer team based in South Florida, and they are part of the Major League Soccer (MLS). The team was founded by David Beckham in 2018 to bring world-class soccer to Miami. Since then, Inter Miami has been making waves within MLS as one of its newest teams.
The club’s inaugural season began on March 1st, 2020, at home against LAFC. Although Inter Miami struggled throughout their first year due to injuries and other setbacks, they still managed to finish 10th place overall in their conference with a record of 6 wins 8 losses 5 draws which earned them a spot into the playoffs for 2021! This was an incredible accomplishment considering it was only their first year playing together as a unit.
Inter Milan has continued to make strides since joining MLS. He had already made history during this 2021 season when they won 2 consecutive games over Atlanta United FC on April 17th & 24th, respectively, becoming just the second expansion franchise ever (after Seattle Sounders)to win back-to-back matches against another top side from MLS! They also recently signed Gonzalo Higuain, who will bring even more talent onto this young squad that looks poised for success moving forward into 2022 and beyond! It will be exciting to see what happens next as Inter Milan continues to grow within Major League Soccer.

Nickname
Inter Miami CF – Inter Miami CF, the newest Major League Soccer (MLS) team to join the league in 2020, has a unique nickname many sports fans may not know. The name “Inter Miami” is derived from Inter Milan and its location in South Florida.
The first part of the name comes from Inter Milan, one of Italy’s most storied soccer clubs. Founded in 1908 as Football Club Internazionale Milano S.p.A., they are commonly known as ‘Inter Milan’ or simply 'Inter.' David Beckham was a club member while playing for AC Milan and LA Galaxy before joining MLS with Paris Saint-Germain FC (PSG). He wanted to bring some Italian flair to his new team by incorporating elements from his former club into their identity - hence why he chose "inter" for their nickname!
The second part comes from where Inter Miami plays - South Florida! They are based out of Fort Lauderdale Stadium, located near downtown Miami and other cities like Hollywood Beach and Key Biscayne, all areas with Latin solid American influences due to their proximity across Latin American countries such as Cuba & Mexico. This makes it fitting for them to adopt an international moniker like “inter."
Altogether, these two parts make up what we now know as "InterMiami CF," representing both Italian heritage through David's connection with InterMilan and embracing local culture within south Florida communities through the use of the words inter." It's truly a unique way how teams can create memorable nicknames while still paying homage to traditional roots abroad or even at home!
