THE BRAND
Why “Pines” in our name?
When settling on a club name, it was important to be inclusive of all areas surrounding our training location in Nacogdoches, TX. The “Pines” portion of our name references the East Texas region in which most of our members come from that is widely known as the Pineywoods.
Why the year “1779”?
The year 1779 is the year that Nacogdoches was officially founded by Don Antonio Gil Y’Barbo. Known as the “Oldest Town in Texas”, by referencing this year, we are able to include all areas around Nacogdoches that were settled thereafter.
Why is green our primary color?
When people from across the region come to East Texas, they are impressed with amount of trees that fill the horizon. With such an overwhelming feeling, we wanted to capture that emotion in our primary color. As such, we will wear the all-green game kit for competitions so long as the rules of the event do not require us to change.
