HISTORY

In 1995 the USISL split into two leagues, one professional and one amateur. The United Systems of Independent Soccer Leagues Pro Soccer League, more commonly known simply as the '''Pro League''', was a FIFA sanctioned Division 3 league. In 1996 , the USISL established the new Select League consisting of its strongest teams from the Pro League and Premier League in hopes of gaining FIFA Division 2 sanctioning. The next season, the Select League and independent Division 2 A-League merged to form a new A-League under the USISL umbrella. In 1999 the umbrella USISL changed its name to the United Soccer Leagues and the Pro League officially became known as the '''United Soccer Leagues D3 Pro League'''. In 2003 the name was changed again to the '''USL Pro Select League''', but during the season had to be changed to the '''USL Pro Soccer League''' due to legal reasons. In 2005 the league took its current name as the '''USL Second Division'''.
