We all know 2026 is a BIG year in soccer 🌎🏆 It's especially significant to us, as we celebrate 25 years of US Club Soccer alongside the excitement of the World Cup. Since our founding in May 2001, we've focused on player development and empowering clubs to facilitate the best environments for players and families. At that time, youth soccer was experiencing growing pains. A change was needed - an organization that would disrupt the status quo, challenge bureaucracy and innovate the sport. Along came US Club Soccer with three founding principles: 1) soccer people making soccer decisions, 2) local decisions made locally and 3) the sport deserves professional management. Those principles remain today. We'll be celebrating our 25th anniversary throughout the year with content, and we hope you'll enjoy these moments of nostalgia as much as we do. Most importantly, whether you've been a member for decades or more recently, thank you for being a part of our journey.
