FC Dallas history

Back in 1995 this charter MLS club got its start as the Dallas Burn and played its first season in 1996. Early home games were at the Cotton Bowl, and the current name arrived in 2004. Since 2005 the team has played in Frisco. Brothers Clark and Dan Hunt lead the Hunt Sports Group, which owns the club, and Dan serves as president.

FC Dallas won its first Supporters' Shield in 2016 and has two U.S. Open Cups, from 1997 and 2016. The 2010 MLS Cup final slipped away in extra time against Colorado. The youth academy is a calling card, producing players such as Weston McKennie and Reggie Cannon who went on to European clubs and the US national team. A ranking of clubs for 2016 put Dallas 190th in the world.
