     With an eye on future advancement into the professional space, Peoria City is focusing its 2026 competitive operations on the USL League Two men’s team. The club has paused its U20 USL Academy team and U23 men’s training program, as well as the WPSL and WPSL II women’s teams. Peoria City remains committed to providing Central Illinois soccer talent enhanced training opportunities, however, and will streamline its development program with the introduction of both a U20 men’s and a women’s year-round training and playing model.

     More details on the summer training programs and registration information will be released this spring.

     Peoria City also will increase its investment in local initiatives to support underserved groups within our community, expanding offerings for free and reduced-cost opportunities for camps, clinics, training and game attendance.
