The first soccer game at Trinity was played in October 1858 against 20 Hartford men. It lost favor during the Civil War and was revived in 1912.

In 1924, two soccer teams of first-years began to scrimmage one another in the fall. Sophomores joined in later in the year. In 1926, a game against the faculty was arranged in which the faculty beat the sophomores. These friendlies continued to occur until a club team was formed in 1928.

The men's soccer team played its first varsity season in 1936. The 1957 team was named the most outstanding soccer team in the nation by the Intercollegiate Soccer Football Association. The men's soccer program boasts five NCAA appearances.

Women's soccer played its first varsity season in 1980. It has one ECAC championship and two NCAA tournament appearances.
