Indy Eleven News Release
TAMPA/INDIANAPOLIS - The United Soccer League today announced its 2022 USL on ESPN national telecast schedule, bringing marquee Championship matches and the League One Final to millions of homes throughout the new campaign. Combined with nearly 700 Championship and League One games on ESPN+, USL fans can watch the entire regular season, playoffs, and finals for both leagues on ESPN platforms.
This year's 19-match slate on ESPN, ESPN2, and ESPN Deportes nearly triples the USL's linear presence since 2018. The schedule features intriguing rivalry and interconference matchups at some of the country's best soccer cities - including Indy Eleven welcoming reigning USL Championship title holder Orange County SC to IUPUI Carroll Stadium on Sunday, April 24, for a 5:00 p.m. ET kickoff that will air on ESPN Deportes.
In addition to its national broadcast slate, the USL Championship also confirmed kickoff times for all 459 contests that will comprise the league's regular season. Fourteen of the team's 15 Saturday dates at Carroll Stadium will kick at 7:00 p.m. - the lone exception being a 4:00 p.m. start for the team's "Indy 500 Eve" fixture against New Mexico United on May 28 - while both Sunday affairs at "The Mike" (said April 28 vs. Orange County and Sept. 25 against Loudoun United FC) are set for 5:00 p.m. Indy Eleven's local television broadcast schedule will be announced in the coming weeks.
The full 2022 Indy Eleven regular season schedule with kickoff times can be found below and at indyeleven.com/2022-schedule, which is always where the most up-to-date version of the schedule will be posted. In addition, a one-page PDF version of the club's 2022 schedule can be downloaded here.
The 2022 USL Championship Final airs on Sunday, November 13 at 9:00 p.m., (network to be announced), bringing the curtain down on the league's 12th season prior to the kickoff of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar on November 21.
