Sports fans have plenty to choose from in the Laredo, Texas area. Many teams call the region home. The Heat is a United Soccer Leagues Premier Development Team. That is a fancy way of saying the players are amateurs (high school and college students) who want to play soccer at a high level but maintain their status. Sometimes, former professionals join teams as well. The team won the PDL championship, their first, in 2007.¹ Baseball is back in town with the arrival of the Lemurs in 2012. The team competes at Uni-Trade Stadium against teams from Winnipeg and St. Paul to Amarillo and Grand Prairie.
