Portsmouth, NH (June 27, 2018) – The Northeast Soccer League (NSL) and the Northern New England Soccer League (NNESL) are pleased to announce they are collaboratively working to create development opportunities for clubs, players and coaches across the Northern New England landscape.

For Fall 2018, discussions will focus on an early season jamboree for younger teams, creating opportunities for inter-league play during the season for older divisions, and sponsoring end-of-season events involving teams from the NSL and qualifying teams from the NNESL.
