The Texas Outlaws are an American professional indoor soccer team based in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex that competes in the Major Arena Soccer League (MASL). Founded in 2019, the team made its debut in the MASL with the 2019–20 season. Their first season was ended early due to Coronavirus disease of 2019.[1] The Outlaws are owned by Mehrdad Moayadi, a real-estate developer in the Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex.[2] The team is located just 32 miles from crosstown rival the Dallas Sidekicks.[3] They are coached by Tatu who spent much of his career playing for the Sidekicks.[4] Many of the players on the team were added from local tryouts that were held in Addison, Texas.[5]
