UPSL Men’s D1 Soccer

We are excited to announce Placer United’s entry into the United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) and invite you to attend our Men’s UPSL Open Training session for Ages 18+.

Date: Friday, February 28th

Time: 7:30 PM – 9:00 PM

Location: Mahany Park, Roseville

Cost: Free!

With the ever-changing landscape of college recruitment, we want to bridge the gap between our youth soccer model and a pre-professional platform. The UPSL League offers an ongoing opportunity for current players to compete at a higher level while also providing our alumni with quality games as they continue their soccer journey.

Our UPSL team will be led by Coach Bryan Byrne [Profile Link]. Originally from Ireland, Coach Bryan played collegiately at UC Santa Barbara, where he captained the Gauchos to an NCAA Division I National Championship in 2006. His collegiate success led him to the professional ranks, signing with the New England Revolution in Major League Soccer, where he was part of the team that won the 2007 U.S. Open Cup and reached the MLS Cup Final. His experience playing at the highest levels, combined with his commitment to player development, makes him a valuable asset as Placer United launches into the UPSL.

About the United Premier Soccer League

Founded in 2011, the UPSL is the largest and most competitive pro-development league in North America. With nearly 400 clubs nationwide, and recent conferences added in Canada and Mexico, the league serves as a key stepping stone between youth and professional soccer. Competing at the 4th tier of the U.S. Soccer pyramid, the UPSL provides players with a highly competitive environment to develop their game and pursue higher levels of competition.
