Playing soccer at the next level is a goal for many players. Whether the “next level” is making the high school team or playing at the collegiate, professional or international level, competition at the National League level develops the mindset for and prepares players to push themselves to reach their goals. The journey of National League teams is united by common aspirations as teams compete to play in some of the top level competitions within US Youth Soccer.
National League teams compete within geographical conferences throughout the season. The conferences provide a pathway to USYS Regional Championships and the following season’s National League Conference Playoffs. Teams playing in the Conference Playoffs seek to earn National League PRO bids with the ultimate goal of advancing to the National Championships.
