History
The Rio Grande Valley Bravos were due to make their competitive debut on May 2, 2009,[1] against Laredo Heat, but the game was postponed due to concerns about the spread of swine influenza.[2] The Bravos finally played their first official game on May 8, 2009, a 1–1 tie with fellow expansion franchise West Texas United Sockers.[3] The first goal in franchise history was scored by Adrian Vazquez.
The Bravos had their franchise terminated by the USL Premier Development League in October 2010 when the club’s interim owner was unable to complete his financial obligations to the league. A new franchise, the Rio Grande Valley Grandes, were announced as replacing the Bravos in the PDL for the 2011 season.[4]
A new team, Rio Grande Valley Ocelots FC, took over the team's assets in on October 13, 2010, and joined the Southern Premier Soccer League for the 2011–2012 season.[5]
