It was initially founded in 2019 by supporters of San Antonio FC.[1] It awards a Division 1 trophy for the top Major League Soccer team, a Division 2 trophy for the top USL Championship team, and the Copa Tejas Shield for the best team across all participants. The current Major League Soccer clubs are Austin FC, FC Dallas, and Houston Dynamo FC. The USL Championship clubs are El Paso Locomotive FC, Rio Grande Valley FC, and San Antonio FC. Austin Bold FC announced it will not participate in the 2022 USL Championship season as it actively seeks relocation to another city in Texas.[2] NWSL side Houston Dash participates only in the Copa Tejas Shield as the lone Texas team in the league.

With the addition of Austin and El Paso in the 2019 season, the Copa Tejas was created by supporters of San Antonio FC to determine the best team in Texas.[1]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Austin Bold FC claimed the inaugural Copa Tejas with a 3\u20130 win over Rio Grande Valley FC on September 1, 2019. They finished top of the table with a 3\u20132\u20131 (W-D-L) record and 11 points.Due to the coronavirus pandemic and the rescheduling of the 2020 USL Championship season into group play, El Paso was not included in the group with the other Texas teams. This resulted in the lack of a “fair round-robin format”, and so the Copa Tejas was not awarded in 2020.[3]In 2021, with Austin FC joining Major League Soccer, an MLS division of the competition, called Division 1, was created.[4] This was to supplement the existing Texas Derby which is contested between FC Dallas and Houston Dynamo FC. The USL Championship division would now be known as Division 2.[3]The Copa Tejas Shield was announced in 2021 as a cross-league award, featuring the teams from both the Division 1 and Division 2 competition and NWSL side Houston Dash.Division 1[edit]YearChampionsSecondThird2021FC DallasHouston Dynamo FCAustin FC2022Austin FCFC DallasHouston Dynamo FC2021[edit]2021 results summaryPosTeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1\u00a0\u00a0FC Dallas63211410+4112\u00a0\u00a0Houston Dynamo FC62221210+283\u00a0\u00a0Austin FC6204915\u221266\u00a0\u00a0Austin FC win\u00a0\u00a0FC Dallas win\u00a0\u00a0Houston Dynamo FC win\u00a0\u00a0DrawFC Dallas v Houston Dynamo FCAustin FC v Houston Dynamo FCHouston Dynamo FC v FC DallasHouston Dynamo FC v Austin FCHouston Dynamo FC v FC DallasAustin FC v Houston Dynamo FC2022[edit]2022 results summaryPosTeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1\u00a0\u00a0Austin FC422085+382\u00a0\u00a0FC Dallas413076+163\u00a0\u00a0Houston Dynamo FC401359\u221241\u00a0\u00a0Austin FC win\u00a0\u00a0FC Dallas win\u00a0\u00a0Houston Dynamo FC win\u00a0\u00a0Draw2023[edit]2023 results summaryPosTeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1\u00a0\u00a0Austin FC000000002\u00a0\u00a0FC Dallas000000003\u00a0\u00a0Houston Dynamo FC00000000\u00a0\u00a0Austin FC win\u00a0\u00a0FC Dallas win\u00a0\u00a0Houston Dynamo FC win\u00a0\u00a0DrawDivision 2[edit]ClubTitlesYearsAustin Bold FC12019El Paso Locomotive FC12021Rio Grande Valley FC0San Antonio FC12022 Franchise relocated after completion of the 2021 USL-C seasonYearChampionsSecondThirdFourth2019Austin Bold FCSan Antonio FCRio Grande Valley FCEl Paso Locomotive FC2020Not Awarded2021El Paso Locomotive FCAustin Bold FCRio Grande Valley FCSan Antonio FC2022San Antonio FCRio Grande Valley FCEl Paso Locomotive FC–2019[edit]2019 results summaryPosTeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1\u00a0\u00a0Austin Bold FC632164+2112\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio FC622297+283\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley FC622289\u2212184\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Locomotive FC604247\u221234\u00a0\u00a0Austin Win\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Win\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley Win\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio Win\u00a0\u00a0DrawEl Paso v Rio Grande ValleyRio Grande Valley v San AntonioRio Grande Valley v AustinSan Antonio v Rio Grande ValleyRio Grande Valley v El PasoAugust 24, 2019 10 Rio Grande Valley 1\u20130 El Paso Edinburg7:30 p.m. CDTBird  46′ELP ReportRyan \u00a056‘\u00a0\u00a090+1‘Stadium: H-E-B ParkAttendance: 4,275Referee: Luis GuardiaAustin v Rio Grande Valley2020[edit]2021[edit]2021 results summaryPosTeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Locomotive FC127232416+8232\u00a0\u00a0Austin Bold FC123631017\u22127153\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley FC1235417170144\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio FC123451516\u2212113\u00a0\u00a0Austin Win\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Win\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley Win\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio Win\u00a0\u00a0DrawRio Grande Valley v San AntonioEl Paso v Rio Grande ValleySan Antonio v Rio Grande ValleyRio Grande Valley v AustinSan Antonio FC v Rio Grande FCRio Grande Valley v El PasoAustin v Rio Grande ValleyRio Grande Valley v AustinRio Grande Valley v San AntonioAustin v Rio Grande ValleyEl Paso v Rio Grande ValleySan Antonio v AustinOctober 23, 2021 23 San Antonio 0\u20130 Austin San Antonio7:30 p.m. CDTReportStadium: Toyota FieldAttendance: 6,516Referee: Ismir PekmicRio Grande Valley v El Paso2022[edit]2022 results summaryPosTeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio FC431074+310[a]2\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley FC412165+153\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Locomotive FC401304\u221241^ Due to the uneven schedule, San Antonio FC’s match against RGV on 3\/27\/22 did not count as a Copa Tejas match.[6]\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Win\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley Win\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio Win\u00a0\u00a0Draw2023[edit]2023 results summaryPosTeamPldWDLGFGAGDPts1\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Locomotive FC000000002\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley FC000000003\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio FC00000000\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Win\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley Win\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio Win\u00a0\u00a0DrawClubTitlesYearsAustin Bold FC0Austin FC0El Paso Locomotive FC12021FC Dallas0Houston Dash0Houston Dynamo FC0Rio Grande Valley FC0San Antonio FC12022 Franchise relocated after completion of the 2021 USL-C seasonYearChampionsRunners-up2021El Paso Locomotive FCSan Antonio FC2022San Antonio FCAustin FC2023 results summaryPosTeamPldPPG1\u00a0\u00a0San Antonio FC52.202\u00a0\u00a0Houston Dash22.003\u00a0\u00a0FC Dallas71.574\u00a0\u00a0Houston Dynamo FC61.505\u00a0\u00a0Rio Grande Valley FC41.506\u00a0\u00a0Austin FC61.177\u00a0\u00a0El Paso Locomotive FC61.17Top Scorers[edit]Division 1[edit]Stats as of 7\/16\/2022 \u2013 Bold denotes still active with teamDivision 2[edit]Stats as of 9\/7\/2022 \u2013 Bold denotes still active with teamCup Scoring[edit]The Division 1 and Division 2 Copa Tejas format is similar to the Cascadia Cup.
