Founded by Jay Coster in 2000 as Southern Oregon Fuego, the club existed as an exhibition team for approximately ten years before joining the NPSL in 2009. Southern Oregon regularly hosted exhibition matches against teams such as the Cascade Surge of the USL PDL, local college teams or collections of area all-stars.
In 2009 it was announced that the Fuego would be playing as a member of the National Premier Soccer League in the Western Division.[1]
In their first NPSL season Southern Oregon Fuego made the divisional playoffs while posting a 4-7-1 record and finishing fourth in the Western Division. Fuego were eliminated in the semifinal losing to eventual NPSL champion Sonoma County Sol 4–1.[2] The club left NPSL after two seasons, competing in non-league matches.[3][4] They would later change ownership.
