HERE ON PURPOSE
Ask around. Everybody in Maine’s up here for good reason.
USL to Portland is the growing movement behind the professional soccer team up here too, kicking off in 2025!
Kicking Balls &
Taking names
Here in the original Portland, we’re primed for a soccer team and boast a built-in fan base ready to be pulled from more than three states. We’re hearty, scrappy, and from all over the world. Our moment is now.
THE WAY SOCCER SHOULD BE
Community-Built
Work hard, play hard. We’ll build our team from the ground up, weaving in the spirit of our already tight-knit community.
City-backed
With support from our fellow Portlanders; community members, business leaders, and city officials, it’s time to seize the momentum and show the soccer world we’re ready.
Culture-led
Portland is buzzing with creativity and excitement. We’re passionate beyond our size and ready to cheer our brains out.
impact-focused
This is bigger than a team. It’s an opportunity to create a magnet for new business development and unite an entire untapped market.
We’re all on the same team
Our entire goal is to build community through soccer. We believe the beautiful game brings people together and are building our movement on a foundation of diversity, inclusion and social good.
