The Dallas Sidekicks professional soccer franchise was founded on January 9, 1984 when Dallas Mavericks owner Don Carter purchased the bankrupt New Jersey Rockets original Major Indoor Soccer League franchise. The Sidekicks went on to have a successful history behind indoor soccer legend Tatu and key players like Mike Powers, David Doyle, Sagu and so many others.  The Dallas Sidekicks originally played their home games at Reunion Arena in downtown Dallas, garnering a large following there and attracting a rowdy home crowd. The great fan support the team received during their initial run in Dallas helped fuel the team’s success.

After an eight-year hiatus, the Dallas Sidekicks made their comeback in May of 2012 when majority owner Ronnie Davis purchased an expansion franchise in the Professional Arena Soccer League (PASL). In the summer of 2014, the PASL joined forces with several teams from the defunct Major Arena Soccer League to create the MASL, the largest and most competitive arena soccer league in the USA. The Sidekicks compete in the Southern Division of the MASL. 

The Dallas Sidekicks make their home at the Allen Event Center and continue to produce an entertaining and family-oriented experience for all ages, with the ultimate goal of raising a few more banners along the way. Go Sidekicks!
