Two new UPSL teams are coming to Northern Nevada. Battle Born Futbol Club and Sierra Nevada FC.
Reno 1868 FC folded back in November. When Reno 1868 FC left the only they took pro soccer out of Reno. The highest level of soccer we had here was college. The University of Nevada Reno and Truckee Meadows Community College still have teams. The former Northern Nevada UPSL team, the Nevada Coyotes FC hasn’t played since 2019 and I believe the team folded.
The UPSL is an amateur soccer league with over 300 teams. Both Northern Nevada teams will be playing in the Wild West division. Battle Born Futbol Club enters the league as a brand new team. Battle Born Futbol Club is based out of Carson City. The team hosted tryouts at Sierra Lutheran High School. I think that they will play their home games there.
Sierra Nevada FC is not a new club. They currently operate 26 teams. According to their website they are focused on youth development. There is nothing on their website or social about their UPSL team. According to the UPSL they are having tryouts at Golden Eagle.
Neither team has announced a home field. The UPSL spring season is beginning in March. The schedule for the upcoming season has not been announced yet.
Battle Born will be playing at Sierra Lutheran High School until their soccer complex with a micro stadium is finished on 50 near Empire Ranch golf course
