THE USL ACADEMY AT TRI-CITIES UNITED

THE PATHWAY TO PRO




The TCU Soccer Pyramid

Tri-Cities United Soccer Club prides itself on its commitment to players.   Be it player development, character, teamwork, or competition, we strive to create the best environment for players to grow into the best soccer players, and individuals they can be.


The United Soccer League (USL) is the largest professional soccer organization in North America, possessing nearly a decade of experience in bringing the world’s game to communities across the United States and Canada. Overseeing three men's leagues (USL Championship, USL League One, USL League Two), two women's leagues (USL Super League, USL W League), one elite player development platform (USL Academy), and a national youth platform (USL Super Y League), the USL is built on a proven and recognized model in international football and counts more than 200 clubs in its membership.


TCU launched the USL Academy, so that the best local players can develop in a pre-professional environment and compete at an elite level, with an established path to collegiate or professional soccer, and do it in a way the region has never seen before, and it all happens right here in the Tri-Cities.


The PATHWAY TO PRO, starts at TCU with an eco-system from Recreational Soccer, to Club Level, Pre-Professional, and Professional Soccer. We are committed to players, their development, and their success in all aspects of life.
