About

The Philly Soccer Page is the local soccer sports section you wish your newspaper had.

PSP’s writers and photographers follow the game at all levels, from Philadelphia’s local leagues and pickup games to the Philadelphia Union and the U.S. Men’s and Women’s National Teams. We play in pickup games and leagues around the area, watch the sport in local soccer pubs, and look to support it however we can.

If it’s soccer and it’s in the Philadelphia area, we’re interested, whether it’s in Cape May or Reading, Philadelphia or Chester, Wilmington or West Chester.

This site was started by players in the Casa Soccer League in Philadelphia, and now our contributors and readers come from across the soccer spectrum and journalism spectrum.

We’re always looking for information on local soccer events, so if you know of something going on, please let us know. Likewise, if you’re interested in becoming a regular contributor to PSP, give us a shout.

We are very fortunate to have gifted photographers contributing to our coverage each week. We are an all volunteer website — no one gets paid here — so we do appreciate knowing you have enjoyed our work. Other websites that wish to use the work of our contributors should reach out to editor Matt Custer to coordinate licensing with the photographer. All photographs should be credited “Photographer Name/The Philly Soccer Page.”

PSP provides rich coverage of the Philadelphia Union and Philadelphia Union II as our primary focus with regular match reports and analysis, photo essays and regular discussion of the Union and the soccer world on the All Three Points podcast.

If you’d like to contribute to PSP’s coverage, reach out to our editor, Matt Custer, with links to recent writing or photography work and you’ll be considered. Not all contributors will be assigned to Union first-team matches.
