The United Soccer League is changing the names of its divisions to match those of England's three-tier Football League.
The top division, the second tier of the U.S. soccer pyramid below Major League Soccer, will change its name from the USL to the USL Championship next season under a rebrand the league announced Tuesday. Oklahoma City's Energy FC is a member of the USL.
The new circuit launching next year will be known as USL League One. Its amateur Player Development League will be rebranded USL League Two.
The USL Championship plans to operate with 33 teams, including Energy FC.
