Behind every athlete is a human being navigating the demands of the game, recovery, relationships, pressure, & everyday life.

We sat down with the USLPA Exec. Board to talk about the routines, habits, and perspectives that help them stay grounded throughout a long pro season.

[USLPA @USLPlayers]

USL Championship players are fighting for basic professional standards.

@ussoccer sets the standard for the game in this country, so why are players pushing for the minimum?

The message is simple:
Do you stand with the players?

We love this league. That’s why we’re holding it accountable.

Behind the “builder” story:
$0 contracts.
No health insurance.
20 folded clubs.
Players left behind.

Growth can’t come at the expense of the people who power it.

[USLPA @USLPlayers]

Players have spoken.

Players have overwhelmingly REJECTED the league’s latest CBA proposal — and AUTHORIZED A STRIKE if necessary.

This isn’t about extras.
It’s about basic professional standards.

The message is unified.
The players are ready.
