Texoma FC is an American professional soccer team based in Sherman, Texas. First announced in 2023, the team began play in USL League One beginning in 2025 and plans to begin play in USL W League in 2026 at Historic Bearcat Stadium.
History
On October 23, 2023, the United Soccer League announced that North Sixth Group had been granted a USL League One expansion team in Sherman, Texas, to start play in the 2025 season followed by a women's pre-professional team in USL W League in 2026.[1][2] The team had been in the making for at least four months beforehand, with co-owners Simon Keizer and Ben Watson being soccer veterans with local ties to the city of Sherman.[3] The club will play in Historic Bearcat Stadium until a permanent stadium is built.
The club's name and logo were unveiled on December 14, 2023.[4]
On May 9, 2024, the club announced Adrian Forbes as the team's inaugural sporting director.[5] Forbes was announced to be the team's first-ever head coach on October 17, 2024, combining that position with his role as sporting director.[6][7]
Colors and badge
The club's nickname, colors and crest were unveiled on December 14, 2023. The crest features two stylized birds: a Northern mockingbird and a Scissor-tailed flycatcher (the state birds of Texas and Oklahoma, respectively), standing over a soccer ball. The club colors are identified as magnolia and red; magnolia being a reference to Durant's nickname "the City of Magnolias" and red for the Red River that separates the two states.[8]
