NPSL is Fastest Growing National Sports League! The NPSL is the fastest growing national sports league in the United States with over 80 teams playing all over the country. The NPSL is the 4th Division in the U.S. Soccer professional soccer pyramid and is considered to be the foundation for the development of players in the United States. Some Major League Soccer (1st Division) and North American Soccer League (2nd Division) teams participate in the NPSL for the purpose of developing players.
