NISA Nation's Tennessee Region to Kickoff its 2025 Spring Season on Saturday

Tennessee Region makes its NISA Nation debut this Saturday featuring two matches.

NISA Nation is a semi-pro league below the NISA league that plays a spring and fall season. The league will kick off its fourth season and will debut a new region called the Tennessee region. The initial plan was to be a combined region featuring 10 clubs across Arkansas and Tennessee. However, after a turbulent offseason that saw four regional leagues announce their departures from NISA Nation last month, the league still moved forward with a spring season. Plans for the Tennessee region have changed, and it will be a five-team league instead, and the Arkansas Wolves and Tango FC are no longer listed on the NISA Nation website. Here are the clubs playing in the Tennessee region for the Spring 2025 season.

• Dream FC (Nashville, TN)

• FK Han (Bowling Green, KY)

• Music City SC (Nashville, TN)

• Nashville Knights FC (Nashville, TN)

• Paul Depay FC (Nashville, TN)

Dream FC has been busy wrapping up its preseason, announcing new players on social media, and adding a UPSL side. Nashville Knights FC has also been busy announcing player signings. Paul Depay FC is joining NISA Nation for the spring season. The club has an academy team, a women’s team, and has another semi-pro team in the UPSL. Music City SC's debut will be next weekend, and FK Han has been signing players while playing matches in the UPSL. Dream FC and Paul Depay have announced their full schedules in NISA Nation for the spring season.
