FC Wisconsin is excited to announce that beginning with the 2025–2026 season, the club will compete in the newly formed National League Premier platform. This league replaces the current Elite 64 Regional League, which has been restructured and rebranded to create a more dynamic and competitive environment.

 

Starting next season, our current Elite 64 RL teams will transition into the National League Premier 2, offering continued high-level play with enhanced college exposure and a regional format designed to minimize travel.

 

As part of this realignment, several additional Wisconsin-based clubs will also join the league, strengthening local competition and the overall competitiveness of the league.

 

FC Wisconsin will compete in the NL Premier 2 North Division, which includes:

• Wisconsin Clubs: FC Wisconsin, Elmbrook United, North Shore United, and Croatian Eagles
• Illinois Clubs: Rockford Raptors, FC 1974 Libertyville, and FC1 Academy

 

“We are excited to offer another club-based, competitive pathway and platform for our teams, as well as increased college exposure and opportunities for our older-aged players,” said Neil Tolson, ECNL RL and National League Director. “This is a strong regional competition with limited travel, and we’re confident our teams will thrive.”
