The past two weeks have seen at least two major developments in the ever-changing profile of the US soccer pyramid. First, there was the introduction of a new Division III league into the men’s side of that pyramid. NISA is due to debut in 2019. Now comes news that one of the two existing Division II men’s leagues, the NASL, may be recategorized by the US Soccer Federation as Division III for 2018. Just a few months ago, USL, the other current Division II men’s league, had begun to lay the foundations for its own Division III to begin play in 2019.
