Thank you to all of our families and players for embracing the NPL league and making it a positive experience from many vantage points. After some normal unknowns as a first year program, families found out that the travel amount was appropriate within the expectations for our top teams and not as intense as many thought. We found and managed the proper balance for our teams as best as we could. We also found out that the higher competition was valuable and important for our player\u2019s developmental growth. Playing NPL validated the value of regional league competition as an internal motivator to our players. Furthermore, 5 out of 6 teams qualified for the post season playoffs event in Atlanta. As we conclude the season, congratulations to our 2007 Boys NPL for qualifying to the US Club Soccer NPL Regional tournament in NC this upcoming June and to our 2003 Boys NPL team for qualifying directly to US Club NPL Finals in Colorado this July enhancing exposure and showcase opportunities for these players. As a club we look forward to an even more successful upcoming second season.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h5>What does the NPL 2022-2023 schedule look like?<\/h5><p>Tennessee United will remain as a member in the 11 year old NPL South Atlantic Premier League (SAPL) with two conferences (east\/west) with clubs from North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama. We play in the West Conference (GA, AL, TN). For this next season, the West Conference will have a total of 6 clubs reducing travel by one weekend. Our top NPL U13, U14, U15, U16, U17 and U19 teams will begin the season with the North Carolina showcase with 2 cross-conference games. The event is scheduled for August 6-7. Then teams will play a total of 10 league games; where we will host 5 home games and play 5 away games. These dates are TBD and are based on league scheduling spread between the months of August thru November. During the entire fall season, we do take in consideration player periodization where we will be off Thanksgiving week and Christmas break through New Year\u2019s. The league will culminate with the playoff event in Atlanta on January 14-16, 2023 over the Martin Luther King weekend, playing 3 games (just like this season). The playoff gives the qualifying teams the opportunity to earn a bid to the US Club NPL postseason regional \/ national events.\u00a0<\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><i>Note: Our U13 and U14 teams will have a conference only play reduced NPL season in the
