In 2019, Jouons Football Club and the Washington Youth Soccer Association (WYSA) merged to form DC Eleven. The leadership team includes Darryl G., Bre B., Troy M., Bash B., Jordan T., Jean-Marie G., Paul A., Ronald R., Ben D., Keith T., Michael I., Pierre H., Elvis H., James K., and Arlen G. The club states that its mission is to prepare footballers for the global stage through a holistic approach that emphasizes technical skill, tactical intelligence, physical development, personal growth, and a culture rooted in passion, purpose, and the desire to improve. DCXI notes that it is dedicated to inclusion and ensuring every player has an opportunity to grow through a 501(c)3, with donation-based programs and scholarships offered through a nonprofit organization, and that its founders are actively involved in coaching and creating international opportunities, guided by a long-term vision over 5 to 10 years.

DCXI describes itself as rooted in the community of Takoma and the larger Washington DC area, collaborating with local organizations such as the Department of Parks and Recreation and Friends of Takoma Park. The program reports that it actively engages in fundraising through a 501c3 organization led by a group of parents and holds an annual gala fundraising event to help alleviate socio-economic barriers, inviting the community to participate and support this mission.
