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.[1] 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.[2] 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.[3]
