NPSL Fall 2010 Registration Now Open

The NPSL provides competitive teams with:

  • Play Coverage Through U18
    The NPSL is open to boys and girls competitive teams, ages U11 to U18.  We expect the league to have approximately 200 teams from eleven associations this season.

  • Family-Friendly Convenience for Local Competition
    The NPSL seeks to provide necessary competition at as local a level possible, limiting the travel until necessary.  With the increased team density this league provides, NPSL will deliver equal or shorter average travel commutes to matches than past leagues or alternative venues.

  • Fall Match League
    12 matches with home and away games. League play will commence on September 12th and concludes on December 5th with Thanksgiving weekend off.


  • Multiple Competitive Divisions per Age
    The NPSL will once again look to establish 2-3 divisions per age/gender in order to optimize like-or comparable competition.  Divisions will incorporate non-PDL Select teams, as well as PDL “C” teams and below (PDL “B” teams allowed with league approval).


  • Promotion and Relegation
    Teams will be moved in order to compete at the appropriate level based on their age group, ability and results.


  • League That Qualifies for Entry in WA Youth Soccer State Cups
    By participating in this Washington Youth Soccer league, teams will meet the league play requirement for post-league play in Washington Youth Soccer State Championship Tournaments.  NPSL is sanctioned by Washington Youth Soccer.


  • Adheres to WA Youth Soccer League CalendarThe NPSL league calendar aligns with Washington Youth Soccer State, District and PDL leagues, ensuring easy adoption and match scheduling.


  • Most Economical Select League Fees
    League fees for NPSL participation are the most economical of select leagues in Washington state, from 50% to 75% lower than alternatives in Washington Youth Soccer and US Club Soccer.  During challenging economic times, teams can put their savings directly nto additional training or tournaments.
