ABOUT USL LEAGUE TWO
USL League Two is the leader in pre-professional soccer in North America.

Throughout the United States and Canada, League Two franchises continue to provide top pre-professional players the opportunity to train and compete at the highest level while maintaining their collegiate eligibility.
