The United Soccer Leagues awards a franchise to St. Lous Scott Gallagher Soccer Club. The team, St. Louis Football Club, will begin play in 2015 in the USL’s third-division PRO league. Games will be played at SLSG’s 5,500-seat stadium at the St. Louis Soccer Park. St. Louis FC returns men’s pro soccer to St. Louis after a five-year absence, will play before a small but passionate fan base for six seasons, and will help St. Louis regain its status as one of the nation’s leading soccer cities.
