The Grandes were awarded a PDL franchise on January 18, 2011 following the demise of their predecessor, the Rio Grande Valley Bravos, which 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. The team was officially announced as a USL Premier Development League expansion franchise on February 18, 2011. The team played its first competitive game on May 6, 2011, a 5-1 loss to Laredo Heat. The first goal in franchise history was scored by Alfonso Cavazos. Players
