The league was announced with eight teams in the northeastern United States and eastern Canada in December after the USL W-League had folder a few months previously. Five teams in a western division were added in January before the Canadian Soccer Association refused entry of two Quebec clubs into UWS, leaving the league at 11 teams for its inaugural season.

Competition format

  • Each team will play each conference opponent once at home and once away.
  • The championship match will be played between the winners of each conference.
