Exciting times are on the horizon for Boise as it gears up to welcome its very own professional soccer teams! The United Soccer League (USL) has announced plans to bring both men's and women's soccer teams to the Treasure Valley, marking a significant milestone in the region's sports landscape. This development sees the creation of a soccer-specific stadium at Expo Idaho.

The project is spearheaded by Boise Pro Soccer, led by a dynamic ownership group with deep ties to the local community. This group comprises Brad Stith, a Boise native with a background in launching successful USL teams, Steve Patterson, a seasoned leader in major sports leagues, David Wali, a prominent Boise entrepreneur, and Bill Taylor, a key figure in U.S. Youth Soccer. Their collective expertise and commitment ensure that Boise's new teams will be a source of pride and joy for the local sports community.

The new stadium at Expo Idaho will host a men's team in the USL League One and a women's team in the USL Super League. This facility is set to be a cornerstone for Boise's rapidly growing sports culture, offering fans an exciting matchday experience and opportunities to engage with their teams. It's not just about the games; it's about bringing people together and fostering a sense of unity and community spirit.

As Boise steps into the national spotlight with games broadcast on major networks like ESPN and CBS Sports, the city joins the ranks of America's most passionate sports destinations. The teams' arrival will not only elevate Boise's sports status but also contribute to the region's overall growth and development. Stay tuned, Boise, because the beautiful game is about to become a central part of your community!
