RGVFC

The RGV FC TOROS is a member of the United Soccer League (USL). The team will serve as the development affiliate of Major League Soccer’s Houston Dynamo. The USL is the strongest U.S. men’s professional soccer league below Major League Soccer (MLS), it features 24 teams in 2015 across the United States and Canada with multiple teams in all four time zones.

Through aggressive and strategic growth, the USL has built a stable, national professional soccer league. In addition to league play, USL teams compete in the Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup as well as various domestic and international exhibitions. The USL is the longest-standing professional affiliate member of U.S. Soccer. This season alone, 13 new clubs entered the league, seven of which are owned by MLS clubs. The RGV FC TOROS and Houston Dynamo are the first clubs to operate as hybrid affiliates.

The Toros’ logo follows the mold of a traditional soccer shield, but offers a twist with the addition of horns to allude to the Toros nickname. The stripes at the bottom of the shield represent the agriculture industry of the Rio Grande Valley, which historically brought trade and commerce to the region. The vertical lines at the top of the graphic represent the sun and Valley heat, while also reflecting an element of the Toro’s MLS single-affiliate Houston Dynamo’s logo.

In addition to the primary logo, the team additionally released secondary logos in the shape of a shield and a Toro, as well as a word mark.

We are very proud to announce the new Rio Grande Valley FC Toros.
The RGV's support and love for sports has helped make this possible.
