Fifteen years ago, the United States proudly hosted the FIFA World Cup™ despite criticism from many in the soccer world. Now, the ‘94 FIFA World Cup™ is widely considered the most successful in FIFA’s history and is considered responsible for the soccer renaissance that followed in the USA, both on and off the field.
At a professional level, Major League Soccer (MLS) was created in 1996. MLS kicked off its 14th season on March 19, 2009 featuring 15 teams each playing 30 regular season matches. The league will expand to 16 teams in 2010 and to 18 teams in 2011. Since 1999, a total of seven soccer specific stadiums have been constructed in our country and by 2010 that number will increase to ten.
