All home matches will continue to be at Mecklenburg County Sportsplex in Matthews which won the 2023 Field of the Year Award from the Sports Field Management Association.

In 2024, MLS NEXT Pro will also make updates to its playoff structure.

The league will bring back the popular “pick-your-opponent” format for the first round with the top four seeds in each conference choosing its matchup. Only the highest-remaining seed will select its opponent in the second round. For full playoff information, click here.
