We are incredibly grateful to US Club Soccer for their invaluable partnership over our first three years in the USA. Together, we successfully launched the JPL into the Mountain West Region—spanning Nevada, Utah, Colorado, Idaho, Wyoming, South Dakota, and Montana. This collaboration provided competitive clubs with a true postseason pathway to the NPL Finals in Denver, growing our league from just over 100 teams in our inaugural season to more than 160 teams heading into the 25/26 season. Our member clubs proved their elite status on the national stage, sending 12 teams to the 24/25 Finals, with three reaching the championship matches and the Black Hills Rapids U19G bringing home the national title.
Building on this phenomenal foundation, we are thrilled to announce the next evolution of our league. To best serve our member clubs and adapt to the future of youth development, we are launching an independent league in partnership with USSSA.
This transition unlocks unprecedented, exclusive opportunities for our players. By aligning directly with the global competitive pathways offered by the Junior Premier League and JPL WARRIORS, we are bridging the gap between American youth soccer and the international stage. Moving forward, our teams will not just compete for regional and national honors, but will also have the extraordinary opportunity to travel to England, train, and test themselves against elite academy teams.
We are excited to take this monumental step forward, offering our clubs a truly unique, world-class soccer experience for years to come.
