The American Soccer League (ASL) was an American soccer league that held three seasons of play between August 2014 and 2017.[1] It is the fourth league in U.S. history to use that name. The league footprint was in the northeastern United States. ASL players were paid, making it different from the NPSL or PDL models in which college-eligible players can compete.
