LOS ANGELES - Sept. 6, 2017 - eTradeWire -- United Premier Soccer League (UPSL) is proud to announce that, effective immediately, 11 Premier League of America (PLA) teams have formed the new UPSL Midwest Conference.

The newly-formed UPSL Midwest Conference will initiate friendlies during the 2017 Fall Season in preparation for the UPSL's upcoming 2018 Spring Season.

United Premier Soccer League Commissioner Yan Skwara said, "We are very pleased to consummate this strategic partnership between the two leagues. Connecting American Soccer is our league slogan, and this consolidation of new teams forming the new UPSL Midwest Conference is a testament to the desire of our team members to become one underneath a single umbrella of a Promotion/Relegation system. We are a step closer to connecting the soccer system in the U.S. that has been so fragmented for years as we now operate in four time zones as a National League. I personally want to thank Tom Zaiss and all the teams from Premier League of America that have placed their confidence in the UPSL. We as a league have an exciting future ahead of us, and we're going to elevate the game together. We look forward to an exciting 2018 Spring Season with the addition of the UPSL Midwest Conference and its new team members."
