[1] The Stampede was founded as a Christian sports ministry, much like fellow PDL side, Mississippi Brilla, as well as several other outlets in the Southeastern United States.

[2] After their momentum was temporarily derailed, a mid-season coaching change (Matt Weston taking over for the departing Anderson DaSilva), helped the team quickly get back on their feet and end the season on another unbeaten streak, this time eight games (7–0–1).

[4][5] The 2013 regular season saw a new coach, former Charlotte Eagles player Cheyne Roberts, and a virtually new roster from top to bottom (all 11 starters were new in 2013).

After a slow start to the season (a loss to MLS bound Orlando City in the 1st round of the US Open Cup and a draw and a loss to start the regular season campaign), the team unleashed a 14-game unbeaten streak, which carried into the Southern Conference playoffs, with a defeat of the Laredo Heat in the round of 16 (1–1 AET final [5–3 in PKs]),[7] and a conference clinching victory over the 2013 Defending Champs the Austin Aztex, 2–0 on Austin's home field.

The National Championships will take place in Seattle, WA on July 31 – Aug 2nd of 2015, with Ocala's semi-final opponent the New York Red Bulls U23s.

Overall: In the three-year period since they began play (2012–2014) the Ocala Stampede has been the most successful USL-PDL team during the regular season (alongside the Austin Aztex), totalling 99 points in the standings.
