The 2024 Memphis 901 FC season was the sixth, and final season for Memphis 901 FC in the USL Championship, the second-tier professional soccer league in the United States soccer system.

Following the season's end, the club would fold, citing a failure to secure funding for a soccer-specific stadium.[1] Their USL Championship franchise rights were transferred to an unrelated club, Santa Barbara Sky FC, a club which was supposed to originally play in the USL League One.[2][3]
