The United Soccer League (USL) has announced that TwinSpires will be the presenting partner of the 2021 USL Championship and USL League One Playoffs.
The partnership, beginning with the first week of the Playoffs, allows USL fans to enter a free-to-play “pick-‘em” game on its mobile app for a chance to win cash prizes, courtesy of TwinSpires.
“As the sports gaming industry continues to grow across the United States, we’re excited to partner with TwinSpires for the 2021 playoffs,” commented USL Senior Vice President of Corporate Partnerships Josh Keller.
“With the most exciting part of the USL Championship and League One seasons upon us, this partnership will allow our fans to be even more invested in every drama-filled match through different contests and promotions.”
Additionally, the collaboration looks to announce offers and promotions for fans living in Arizona, Colorado, Indiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Tennessee that open sports betting accounts.
Six teams have qualified for the single-elimination USL League One Playoffs. Home-field advantage goes in order of final position in the standings, with No. 1 seed Union Omaha and No. 2 seed Greenville Triumph SC earning a bye to the Semifinals.
