COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. - Colorado Springs Switchbacks FC announced today that it has signed midfielder Frank Daroma to a multi-year contract covering the 2026 and 2027 USL Championship seasons. The agreement is pending league and federation approval.

A native of Sierra Leone, Daroma attended California State University, San Bernardino in 2019, where he appeared in 18 of 19 matches, tallying four goals and five assists. He made his professional debut in 2021, spending two seasons in the USL Championship with Las Vegas Lights FC.
