About the Indiana Soccer League (ISL)

The Indiana Soccer League (ISL) was established to provide a premier level of competition throughout the state of Indiana. The ISL charter is granted by Indiana Soccer, the governing body for the state of Indiana for US Soccer and US Youth Soccer. The ISL has a primary focus of creating competitive league play for U13 and older youth teams at a Premier, 1st Division and 2nd Division level. The ISL is operated by the Director of Competition, with support from an Advisory Council, Technical Committees, and many local and regional volunteers.

Indiana Policy for Promotion to and/or Retention in MRL (updated October 2011)

NOTE: MRL does not allow "trapped" players to participate. "Trapped" players are those players whose birthdates require they play U15, but they are still in 8th grade and they do not participate with any high school team. The "trapped" player allowance is an Indiana Soccer specific exception to the US Youth Soccer roster rules. MRL is not required to accept these players. Additionally, U19 "trapped" players are not allowed to participate on U18 teams in the spring.
