Discover USPSA's Leagues and Teams

Whether you're looking to play casually or compete at the highest level of power soccer, USPSA has a team for you. Our teams are organized into three distinct categories: Conference Teams, Non-Conference Teams, and Recreational Teams. Read on to explore what each category offers and discover the best fit for your skills and aspirations.

How it works

USPSA teams are organized into three main categories: Conference Teams, Non-Conference Teams, and Recreational Teams. These categories outline the structure of competitive and recreational play within USPSA, providing a framework for how teams participate in the sport. While most players join a team based on what’s available in their local area, understanding these categories can help you better navigate the organization and opportunities within USPSA.

Whether you’re curious about the competitive structure or simply want to know more about how teams are classified, this guide will provide an overview of each category and what they entail.

Conference Teams

Conference Teams represent the pinnacle of USPSA competition. Divided into four conferences—Premier, Champions, Presidents, and Founders—this system uses promotion and relegation to elevate teams based on their annual performance.

To maintain competitive standards, Conference Teams must:

Play at least 12 sanctioned games during the regular season, including two matches within or above their conference level.
Meet these requirements to qualify for post-season play in the prestigious Conference Cup Championship.

Registration Details:

Annual Team Registration Fee: $850 ($350 registration + $500 Conference Cup deposit).
Full USPSA Membership: Includes voting rights at the Annual General Meeting.

Non-Conference Teams

Non-Conference Teams provide a competitive option outside the formal conference system. While they don’t adhere to the same structure as Conference Teams, they’re perfect for players looking to compete without the commitment of conference requirements.

Season Requirements:

No minimum game requirement for regular play.
Teams aiming for future conference consideration must play at least six sanctioned games during the season.

Registration Details:

Annual Team Registration Fee: $350.
Full USPSA Membership: Includes voting rights at the Annual General Meeting.

Non-Conference Teams strike a balance between flexibility and competition, offering a great pathway to enter the USPSA system.

Recreational Teams

Recreational Teams are designed for those who want to enjoy the game without the pressures of sanctioned or competitive play. These teams are perfect for hosting casual programs while staying connected to the USPSA community.

Key Features:

Receive USPSA updates and information.
No fees to register as a recreational team.
Note: Recreational Teams do not have voting rights at the Annual General Meeting.

Recreational Teams are a welcoming option for players and programs focused on fun, growing their team and community engagement.
