Confirming reports from earlier in the week, the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) announced the formation of a new professional soccer league in conjunction with the remnants of the North American Soccer League (NASL).
The 11 founding clubs of this new endeavor will begin play in 2019 with the first-ever NPSL Founders Cup competition that will run from August to November 2019. According to the NPSL, this Founders Cup competition will lead to a full league schedule, operating at yet to be determined division 2 or 3 level, in the spring to fall of 2020.
The NSPL is currently one of two division 4 leagues in the United States along with the USL PDL (recently renamed to USL League 2).
