Sports teams in Virginia

Sports teams in Virginia include several professional teams, but no professional major-league teams. Virginia is the most populous U.S. state without a major professional sports league franchise playing within its borders, although two of the major-league teams representing Washington, D.C.—the NFL's Washington Football Team and NHL's Washington Capitals—have their practice facilities and operational headquarters in Northern Virginia.
