TAMPA, Fla. - The largest edition of the USL Winter Summit will open on Tuesday morning at the Renaissance Orlando at SeaWorld as the organization welcomes more than 750 team executives, staff members and technical staffs to the resort for three days to continue preparations for the 2020 USL Championship, USL League One and USL League Two seasons.
The annual event has become one of the most popular in the USL's calendar, with tailored programming for attendees that offer insights, new ideas and discussion platforms in the areas of operations, ticketing, merchandise, communications and social media among others.
