Start a Team. Become an NLSA USA Affiliate.
What is an Affiliate Team?
An Affiliate Team is an independently operated sports team officially licensed to represent the National Local Sports Association USA (NLSA USA) in their local city or region.
This is not a franchise. There are no royalties, no mandatory playbooks, and no corporate overhead.
Affiliates pay a flat fee, gain access to league branding, and can participate in official games, events, and promotions.

How It Works

Legal Note:
This is not a franchise offer. Participation as an NLSA USA Affiliate is governed by a license agreement. Affiliates operate independently and are not agents, partners, or franchisees of the League. Franchise opportunities may be introduced in the future.
