UPSL Mid-Atlantic South Conference schedule release
Nine teams from Georgia and the Carolinas set to duel this fall
The UPSL Mid-Atlantic South Conference Fall 2025 season kicked off August 31 as nine clubs will be battling in one of the toughest conferences in the UPSL Premier division.
Perennial powerhouses Soda City and the SC United Heat are back along with recent playoff champions Asheville FC in a loaded conference line up. Charleston United and Charlotte SA also are returning from their spring top-five finishes along with Boiling Springs United who finished in 6th place last spring. Former UPSL clubs making a return to the league are Mint Hill FC and Pre-College DA from the Charlotte area while the expansion Coastal Kings FC make their UPSL debut from Savannah, Georgia.
The season is a 10-game gauntlet where teams play every opponent at least once with regional opponents on the schedule playing a home-and-away series. This schedule alignment will be interesting as clubs would rather not be drawn versus Soda, the Heat, or Asheville in that home-and-away series.
The first three teams drawn into a pod are Charleston, the Heat, and the Coastal Kings playing each other home and away. Soda City have been drawn into a pod with Asheville and Boiling Springs playing each team home and away. The final pod are the three teams playing out of the Pineville, NC Sportsplex including Charlotte SA, Mint Hill, and Pre-College DA.
Key dates this season:
Charlotte SA played host to Pre-College DA in the first “Clash of the Three teams calling the OrthoCarolina Sportsplex Home derby” on August 31 with the match ending all knotted at 2-2. Mint Hill FC will also play home games at the same venue making for an odd home-field advantage this season. On October 12 there will be simultaneous 5 PM kickoffs at this venue as Pre-College hosts Asheville and Charlotte hosts Charleston.
Asheville FC hosts the Heat on October 4 at 5 PM and then hosts Soda on October 18 at 6 PM in two huge home-field matches for Asheville both at the Buncombe Sports Park.
Soda hosts the Heat on October 25 in what is always one of the premier matches of the season. Kickoff is at 6 PM at Irmo HS.
Home Openers:
Coastal Kings FC host their inaugural game and home opener on September 6 at 3 PM as Mint Hill visits Specialty Sports Complex Stadium in Savannah.
