United Soccer League renews partnership with Stats Perform through 2028
Stats Perform will remain an official data provider for USL, as well as for three other leagues.
The United Soccer League (USL) and Stats Perform have signed an agreement to extend their current partnership until at least 2028. The two will collaborate to power USL’s fan-facing platforms for its professional division, as well as USL’s broadcast and on-field performance tools.
The USL Championship, League One and Super League are also included in the amended agreement. Super League is USL’s new professional women’s league that will begin its first season during the summer of 2024.
Stats Perform has partnered with USL since 2017 through its Opta service. During the last six years, the company has represented USL as its official data provider, a feature of the partnership that will continue through the amended agreement.
USL President Jake Edwards said: “We are on a mission to dramatically raise the profiles of our competitions domestically and internationally.
“Opta is universally used by the world’s top soccer teams, players, and media. We want the same tools for our elite leagues – and that is Opta.”
Stats Perform CRO Steve Xeller echoed similar sentiments about the duo’s continuing relationship and noted the company’s love of soccer.
He commented: “Opta data is integral to the world’s leading sports federations, teams and broadcasters, and nowhere more so than in soccer.
“It is globally trusted to power insightful, entertaining coverage that puts sport right at the front of fans’ minds – and keeps it there.
“At Stats Perform we are proud of Opta’s unparalleled heritage in sports data and excited to see it used more widely in North America ahead of the FIFA Women’s World Cup in 2023 and the FIFA Men’s World Cup in 2026.”
