What was the level of the league?

How it was formed?

The American Professional Soccer League (APSL) was a professional men’s soccer league with teams from the United States and later Canada. It was formed in 1990 by the merger of the third American Soccer League with the Western Soccer League.

It was the first outdoor soccer league to feature teams from throughout the United States since the demise of the original North American Soccer League. It was the de facto top professional soccer league in the United States. It was also the top league in the Canadian soccer pyramid.

However it was never officially granted Division 1 status on the United States soccer pyramid because, at the time, FIFA would not give this status to leagues that crossed national borders. It applied for the vacant Division 1 role but lost out to Major League Soccer.

For its final two seasons, the APSL changed its name to the “A-League”. It was subsequently absorbed by the emerging United Soccer League organization. The USL retained the A-League name until it became the USL First Division.
