It is in the Mid South division of the South Conference of the [[Premier Development League]] of the [[United Soccer Leagues]]. The club was founded in 2003, when it was moved from Lafayette, Louisiana. The team finished last in the division in the 2007 season, due in part to scheduling difficulties caused by record amounts of rain in Austin, which cause fields to be closed on match days. The Austin Lightning are coached by Jaime Mimbela. Their colors are red and white. ==Other websites== * [http://www.austinlightningsoccer.com Austin Lightning Official Site] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20181227071313/http://austinlightningsoccer.com/ |date=2018-12-27 }} * [http://austinlightningnews.blogspot.com Austin Lightning fan blog]{{Dead link|date=January 2021 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} {{Sport-stub}} [[Category:Sports in Texas]] [[Category:2002 establishments in the United States]] [[Category:2007 disestablishments in the United States]] [[Category:Defunct American soccer teams]]
