Be Part of What’s Next
Lancaster Inferno is holding an Open Tryout for the 2027 season on Monday, December 28, 2026, for talented, driven players interested in competing on our First Team or U23 Team.
Our Teams
First Team | USL W League
Our First Team competes in the USL W League, a pre-professional league providing high-level competition for players pursuing professional opportunities. The league is part of the United Soccer League, which also operates the Gainbridge Super League, a Division I professional women’s league.
U23 Team | U23 WPL
Our U23 Team provides a competitive environment for current college players and recent graduates looking to continue developing and competing at a high level.
Both teams compete from May through mid-July, bringing together college players and aspiring/ former professionals, current and post-collegiate players, and high-level high school standouts.
