2026-27 Inferno USL Academy Open Tryout

Lancaster Inferno is excited to announce an open tryout for players outside of the club for the 2026–27 Inferno USL Academy team.

Inferno USL Academy is designed for elite players seeking a high-performance environment centered on individual development, college recruitment, and national-level competition. Training and matches mirror a professional standard, challenging players while prioritizing long-term growth, exposure, and readiness for the collegiate game.

Our Academy roster features top U15–U19 players from across the region, competing against leading clubs nationwide while attending some of the country’s most respected college showcase events. 

Players benefit from one-on-one college recruiting support, including personalized guidance, exposure opportunities, and connections that help position players for the collegiate level.

Integrated within the Lancaster Inferno pathway, the Academy also provides progression opportunities into the club’s U23 and USL W League teams – offering additional summer competition for players who want to continue developing and for those who aspire to pursue the game beyond the college level.

As part of the USL Academy League — the only national girls platform with a defined pathway to the Division I professional level through the Gainbridge Super League — players train and compete within a fully aligned development model built to support each athlete’s ambitions.
