The team joined the USL as an expansion team in 2009,[1][2] and opened its inaugural season Friday, April 10, 2009 with a 1–0 win over the Arizona Sahuaros in an exhibition match at Grande Stadium. The Sockers played their first official game on May 2, 2009, a 2–0 loss to the El Paso Patriots.[3]
Originally known as the West Texas Sockers, they were renamed the Odessa/Midland Sockers on February 20, 2013.[4] The club was again renamed, this time to "Midland-Odessa FC", upon their entry into NPSL on December 13, 2016.[5] The team adopted Midland-Odessa Sockers FC as its branding for the 2018 NPSL season.
