City SC USL 2 Men's Soccer Team
The elite pre-professional tier in North American soccer, USL League Two (formerly the PDL) features over 120 franchises in four conferences throughout the U.S. and Canada. The league has proven to be a vital stepping-stone for top professionals now playing throughout the world, with over 70 percent of all selections in the MLS SuperDraft since 2010, and we are very excited to announce that City SC will be participating in USL League Two in 2025!
The USL League Two is the leading pre-professional soccer league in North America. Its goal is to provide the highest level of competition to those pursuing playing professional soccer both domestically and internationally. It also gives a platform for young players to compete while maintaining college eligibility and is a proven platform for players to develop and progress to become professionals.
City CS Director of Boys, Glenn Malone, commented, “We are thrilled to announce that City SC has been awarded a USL League Two franchise. This is an incredible milestone for our club and a testament to the foundation we’ve built together. Adding USL League Two to our pathway will give our players the opportunity to compete at one of the highest amateur levels in the country, showcasing their talent and continuing their development toward the professional ranks. We are excited to bring this elite level of soccer to our community and look forward to building on the strong legacy of City SC.”
“City SC have created a stellar reputation for themselves in the way they contribute to their community,” said Joel Nash, SVP of Youth and Pre-Professional Properties. “The USL is eager to support the deep love for soccer rapidly growing in the San Diego area, and with City SC joining League Two, this will provide local players another opportunity to develop at the highest level.”
