      FC Morristown was founded in 2012 by Scott Kindzierski and Dan Karosen and began play in the Garden State Soccer League (GSSL), an amateur soccer league governed by the New Jersey Soccer Association (NJSA) and the United States Adult Soccer Association (USASA). The team's first head coach was former New York Red Bulls Homegrown player Šaćir Hot. The organization fielded a team in the GSSL up until the end of the 2021–22 season, winning the Super Division eight times in that span (2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2022). Entering the 2018 season, Motown held a 23-game undefeated streak in the GSSL before falling to Jackson Lions FC in the middle of the season.
      Motown regularly entered its GSSL team into the NJSA Men's Open State Cup, which it won on four occasions (2018, 2020, 2021, and 2022). In addition the team was also a Fricker Cup Region 1 finalist in 2016 and regional semifinalist in 2017. The team was also an Amateur Cup Region 1 semifinalist in 2014 and 2015.
      In 2018, Motown joined the Northeast Elite Soccer League (NESL) – a league founded by members of USASA Region I that was to be played alongside team's regular seasons. Motown partnered with fellow New Jersey amateur side Jackson Lions FC to form Motown Lions, which won the inaugural NESL Championship over West Chester United SC, 3–1. Motown and Jackson separated for the 2019 NESL season, which saw Motown return to the league final but lose in a rematch against West Chester, 3–2. Due to COVID and other circumstances the league ceased play in 2021.
      While fully amateur, the team qualified for the 2017 U.S. Open Cup by beating tournament regular Lansdowne Bhoys FC, 3–2. The team advanced to the second round by beating NPSL side New Jersey Copa FC, 2–1, before falling to Rochester Rhinos of the United Soccer League, 3–0.
