The USL season kicks off this weekend, with the Colorado Rapids’ affiliate getting three home games this month, starting on Saturday against Ottawa Fury FC. You’ve probably heard by now that the Rapids recently loaned four players to the Charlotte Independence, but here are a few other things you need to know about the USL side.
- The Independence play at Sportsplex at Matthews, a multi-field complex in the Charlotte suburb of Matthews, North Carolina. This is the second “permanent” home for the Independence as they spent the early part of their franchise at the Ramblewood Soccer Complex.
