Delta Force F.C. is a football team based in Asaba, Delta State, Nigeria. They play at Jay Jay Okocha Stadium.

History

Originally called "Delta United", they moved to Asaba after relegation from the Nigeria Premier League in 2003. They ended their 2009 season in fifth place of the Nigeria National League after challenging for promotion the whole season.[1] They were disbanded by the Delta State government for lack of funds after the 2009 season but eventually reinstated to their slot in the league.[2] They were similarly disbanded in 2008 after players protested lack of funds, but the state agreed to bring them back for the 2008-09 season.[3]
