LA MIRADA, CA (March 4, 2025) – NISA Nation is expanding into the Great Lakes State.

Working in collaboration with the Michigan Premier Soccer League (MPSL), clubs have signed agreements to play a Spring Season beginning in late April, with space for more clubs to join. The MPSL/Michigan Region will feature as many as eight clubs in the Spring Season.

“Michigan has a thriving ecosystem of men's clubs with members playing in various amateur leagues for decades,” NISA Nation Director Matt Morse said. “Our connection with the Michigan Premier Soccer League has created a hybrid season in Year One for its top division. We intend to have a great first season, collaborate on what's next and move forward strategically.”

NISA Nation, a full-year league providing independent clubs a groundbreaking pathway to professional status, launched in 2021 with regions from coast to coast.

The Michigan Region will feature a group of clubs that includes Carpathia Kickers SC, Intra United, White Eagles SC, Cavaliers United FC and Pinnacle FC, with more clubs to be announced in the coming days.

The Michigan Region schedule will be released in April. More NISA Nation regions will be announced soon.
