  • United Soccer League has officially adopted the promotion-relegation system, becoming the first professional sports league in North America to do so.

The USL (United Soccer League) has made a historic decision by officially adopting a promotion and relegation system, marking a significant shift in American soccer. This system, common in many parts of the world, allows teams to move between different levels of competition based on their performance. The adoption aims to enhance competition, increase the stakes for teams, and provide a clearer pathway for clubs to ascend or descend through the league structure. This move is seen as a step towards aligning with global soccer norms and could potentially revolutionize the landscape of soccer in the United States by fostering a more dynamic and merit-based league environment.
