Texas club set to make debut in Historic McKinney

McKinney, Tx. & Tampa, Fla. – The United Soccer League announced today that the McKinney Chupacabras are set to join USL League Two beginning in the 2025 season.

The McKinney Chupacabras were established in 2024 with a focus on community and opportunity. The club already supports many community events and promotes several local businesses in historic McKinney. In addition to trying to develop players on the pitch, the club seeks to provide growth opportunities for those aspiring for careers in sports management through internships.

"McKinney is a special place. Myself and my family live and work in the Historic district, so to bring a USL League Two team to our hometown is special for us,” said Michael Hitchcock, club owner and managing partner. “McKinney is known for its various events and celebrations, and we plan to play in a Historic stadium in the Historic district to celebrate the uniqueness of McKinney on game days. The community selected a fun brand that is distinctive and fitting for this community-based club, and we couldn’t be more excited to bring McKinney together through soccer.”

The McKinney Chupacabras will play their home matches at the Ron Poe Stadium located in McKinney, Texas, as a member of the Mid-South Division.

“McKinney is an area with its own identity, and by welcoming them to League Two, we hope to support their individuality through soccer,” said Joel Nash, SVP of Youth and Pre-Professional Properties. “By offering competitive growth opportunities for players and aspiring front office professionals, the club embodies the kind of community spirit we strive for. We couldn’t be happier to welcome the team to the USL ecosystem.”
