The USL-Youth League

Founded in 1999, the USL Y League is dedicated to the progression of future professional players. Averaging 700 teams since 2004, the USL Y League has steered the course for development of elite clubs, players, and coaches. Affiliated with US Soccer, the Super Y League ODP Program has opened countless doors for players to be identified for U.S. National Team Programs.

The USL Y League contains the youth academies of Major League Soccer clubs, USL PRO clubs, PDL clubs and W-League clubs. The league also serves clubs looking to develop the game from the ground up.
