“We have enjoyed great experiences during the last few seasons when hosting our events at these locations, which each offer some of the very best soccer facilities in the country,” said Simon Collins, National League Commissioner. “National League players always bring a high level of competitiveness and excitement to our national events, and these venues will add to the amazing atmosphere by providing a great setting for the teams to compete and make memories.”
Event Pathway
Teams that compete in the National League’s national events first earn their place in the National League Quarterfinals (formerly playoff events) via their performance in the 2023-24 regular season league play.
The National League Quarterfinals in November and January primarily feature Elite 64 teams, while the quarterfinals in December primarily feature Premier 1 teams and Elite 64 Regional League teams. Teams begin at their respective quarterfinal event and — should they secure advancement — move on to one of the National League Semifinals (formerly National League P.R.O.).
The semifinals will include the best teams from the National League’s club-based and team-based divisions, each of whom advance to the semifinals via their performance at the quarterfinals. Each qualifying team competes at one of the two National League Semifinals — in Texas (February) or California (May). While at the National League Semifinals, teams will compete for berths directly to the USYS National Championships, presented by New York Life.
