3STEP Soccer to Operate Expanded Competition Tier of MLS Next
Woburn, Mass (January 9, 2025) – 3STEP Sports announced today that the National Academy League (NAL), operated by 3STEP Soccer, has been selected to operate an expanded competition tier of MLS NEXT.
MLS NEXT, operated by Major League Soccer, is the elite platform for youth development in North America – currently with 151 member clubs and over 16,000 players. The newly expanded MLS NEXT competition tier will increase the number of clubs in MLS NEXT and deepen the overall pool of players and coaches.
“We think it is wonderful that MLS NEXT has expanded its pathway to give access to more clubs and players,” said Ian Burgess, Vice President of 3Step Soccer. “National Academy League has a proven record of working with MLS NEXT Elite Academies and other top clubs. We are thrilled to support MLS NEXT to unite the youth soccer landscape and enhance player development.”
The expanded tier of MLS NEXT will be managed by leading league operators across the youth landscape with a strong commitment to player development. The operators will follow mandated program guidelines and technical standards set by MLS NEXT to ensure a high-quality product.
Starting in September 2025, clubs in the program will compete in regular season games, regional tournaments, and various MLS NEXT national events as well as coaching development and education programs, talent identification, and high-performance opportunities.
“The addition of a new tier to MLS NEXT reflects Major League Soccer’s continued dedication to growing the game at the youth level,” said MLS NEXT Technical Director Luis Robles. “We are excited to deepen the talent pool and welcome more players and coaches as we work with them to develop the next generation of talent who will impact the professional game and national teams.”
