Knowing that lower division soccer clubs are having success in communities all over the US (including his teams), Hitch has the vision to open a Lifestyle Soccer Shop in Historic McKinney. Historic McKinney is a very popular shopping and entertainment destination in the Dallas area where soccer is such an integral part of the community. The concept is to create a space where soccer supporters can come together to hang out, talk shop, watch soccer, enjoy sampling great craft beer from soccer friendly breweries around America while supporting lower division soccer clubs. We have a Shop at 120 Louisiana Street plus the Online Shop at www.prorelsoccershop.com.   
We want to promote clubs all over the US and sell their gear (80% of sales goes to the club) while promoting soccer with lifestyle gear, fun vintage gear, unique items and more. We hope you can make it out to the shop (see Updated Shop Hours) and if not, you can still support local soccer by purchasing gear from the Online Shop.  
ProRel Soccer Shop is all about the soccer community coming together through the beautiful game (and enjoying a great beverage)
