Since being sold by the Legoland Football Association in 1995, Juventus White Sox have been owned by the ruler of Legoland, Emperor David. Formed as Juventus FC in 1994, the club have always had significant financial backing yet domestically remain among the country's biggest underachievers. It is on foreign soils where the club have tasted success. Following an invitation by the Eland ruler and friend of Emperor David, King Edward, the side participated in Eland football competitions between 1994 and 2001 dominating the Eland domestic scene from 1995 onwards landing a record 4 Premiership titles in 6 seasons coupled with 2 Football League Cup titles and a staggering 5 consecutive Charity Shields. The successes in Eland brought international fame to the club and players yet the additional fixtures brought by participating in a second league were blamed for the side's poor form back home.

Indeed back home, the club's early years were characterised by annual relegation battles and in 1996, relegation itself. In the 1994/5 season, an administration error saw the club relegated instead of the nation's biggest club team, Legoland FC, in what became known as Edwardsgate. Juventus Spentus did not participate in the 1995/6 Serie B division as the formation of the SuperLeague enabled the team remain in the top flight. The decision by the LFA to reorganise the Serie A in 1995 drew accusations that that the team, being the Emperor's side, would "never be relegated".

The following season the club prove the accusations wrong by finishing in second last position and being demoted to Serie B. The club would spend just one season in the second tier of Legoland football as they earned promotion back to Serie A in the 1996/7 campaign. Accusations of corruption and favouritism returned in 2000 after the 1999/0 season saw the club finish 3rd from bottom. Instead of being relegated club were granted survival by the LFA's decision to expand the Serie A division from 20 teams to 22. The team's image was tarnished especially amongst their jealous rivals in the Eland football league with media outlets in Eland quick to ridicule the Legoland domestic football set-up. The expanded Serie A division only just saved Juventus Spentus from the drop in the 2001 as the club finished the campaign only a single point and place above the relegation zone.

The 2007-08 season saw Juventus White Sox reach the pinacle of European football when the side qualified for the LEGO European Cup final in Chessland City. The team broke the record for group wins, winning all 10 games to amass an incredible 30 points. Luck was, however, not on Juve's side and the team lost out to ND Land club Blue Berry Bridge 4-5 on penalties.

On 2 May 2010, the day after the final day of the 2009/2010 season, Juventus formally adopted their current name, Juventus White Sox, as part of the Legoisation Programme instigated by the Legoland Football Association.
