DTFC is bringing women's soccer home.
Dallas Trinity FC is the first professional women's soccer team in Dallas, TX. Trinity FC represents the tradition of sport, the connectivity of culture, and the past, present, and future of the city.
We are so honored to have our ownership team, The Neil Family, nominated for the Iconic Sports Culture award from Visit Dallas. Cast your vote here: https://lnkd.in/dmc3q-Yk
"Jim Neil, his wife Jean, their sons Trip and Charlie and daughters Dori and Jenny have made it their lifelong passion to bring women's soccer to the city of Dallas. With the launch of the new USL Super League the Neil family was able to raise the money, setup the structure, find the sponsors to support the club and convince the league to make Dallas one of its 8 inaugural franchises.
The team has gotten off to a great start, even attracting the world's most popular women's futbol team, FC Barcelona, to play in Dallas. In a moment where women's sports are experiencing a renaissance, having a team in Dallas that plays the world's most popular sport, when we're two years away from hosting the biggest sports event on the planet, is a huge win for the city."

🌿 Happy #WellnessWednesday! 🌟 Last Friday’s #GirlsNightOut was more than just a celebration of sport – it was a celebration of #WomenSupportingWomen and the incredible power of community! 💜
From the sidelines to the field, we came together to support our friends Dallas Trinity FC, and the energy was contagious. Karen Hughes White had the honor of delivering the first kick, and the night became even more historic as Dallas Trinity FC notched their first-ever club win with a thrilling 6-2 victory, including the league’s first #hattrick! 🎉
This momentous evening was a true reflection of the impact of women standing strong together, whether in sports or in life. #ThankYou to our amazing partners at Dallas Trinity FC for creating a night of inspiration and celebration at the Cotton Bowl Stadium!
Here’s to lifting each other up and creating a legacy of empowerment! 🙌
