USL League 1 · 2027
USL expansion.
Massachusetts. 2027.
Locally owned. Founding list open.
Mass Rising is a placeholder—the community will vote on the final name and crest.
Be one of the first
Massachusetts loves soccer. It's never had a club that loves it back. That changes now.
What we stand for
Rooted here
Owned by Massachusetts people. Run from Massachusetts. No absentee investors making calls from somewhere else.
Football worth watching
High press, attacking mindset. We'd rather lose 3-2 than draw 0-0.
Open door for players
Public trials. No fees, no agents needed. If you're good enough, you're good enough.
Your voice, actually heard
Monthly votes on real decisions. See the results. Hold us to them.
One cause, real impact
We pick one community issue and go deep. Updates you can actually point to.
The Build
Follow along as we build Massachusetts' next professional soccer club from the ground up.
