Fourteen teams will participate in the 2025 season. Five teams, AV Alta FC,[1] FC Naples,[2] Portland Hearts of Pine,[3] Texoma FC,[4] and Westchester SC,[5] joined as expansion franchises. Lexington SC left to join USL Championship,[6] Central Valley Fuego FC voluntarily left the league.[7] The franchise agreement for the Northern Colorado Hailstorm FC was terminated when its owners filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.[8]
The regular season will start on March 8.[9] The 2025 season also included a new format of the in-season tournament, the USL Cup (known as the USL Jägermeister Cup for sponsorship reasons) which featured a group stage and knockout round between all 38 teams in the two professional USL leagues, the USL Championship and the USL League One, to be played between April and September.[10]
