In conjunction with the City of Mauldin (South Carolina, US) and Greenville County, the USL League One team Greenville Triumph SC presented its case on January 20th, 2022 to the local leaders for a new multipurpose stadium to be constructed for the community.

The ‘USL League One’ stated that the proposed 8,100-seat venue would be the home of Greenville Triumph SC’s League One and W League sides and could host up to 150 soccer matches, athletic events, concerts, festivals, and community events per year. As a hub for soccer in the Upstate region of South Carolina, the proposed stadium would have the ability to host youth, high school, National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), professional, and international soccer matches.

The Greenville Triumph SC is a professional soccer team based in Greenville, South Carolina, United States. The club began play in USL League One in 2019.

The USL League One is a professional men’s soccer league in the United States that had its inaugural season in 2019. The Division III league is operated by the United Soccer League, the same group that operates the Division II USL Championship and other leagues.

Said Greenville Triumph SC Chairman and Lead Owner Joe Erwin, “We have been in ongoing discussions with the Mauldin City Council and the Greenville County Council members regarding a site for a proposed multiuse stadium. We look forward to continuing to provide information, answering their questions and listening to their ideas.”

The ‘USL League One’ further stated that the $38.6 million stadium project would anchor the upcoming Bridgeway Station, a $150 million, 38-acre mixed-use retail, office, residential and entertainment complex. Owned by Greenville County, the proposed stadium would be constructed on a six-acre site adjacent to Interstate 385 in the heart of Triumph SC-supporter territory. The stadium would be operated by Greenville Triumph SC and serve as the club’s new headquarters.

According to the Clemson University Regional Economic Analysis Laboratory, the estimated economic impact of the stadium project would exceed $270.4 million and create 350 to 400 jobs during its initial decade of operation. Additionally, the proposed stadium would not require new taxes, but instead rely on existing hospitality tax revenue. Triumph SC would provide the six-acre site valued at $6 million, an additional $1.75 million in stadium seating and pay an annual lease.

As a growing sports market, the Greenville area is saturated with soccer interest as the region boasts over 9,000 registered youth soccer players with one in three children on a team. In the professional ranks, Triumph SC has advanced to the League One Final in all three years of the league’s existence and will field a women’s side in the USL W League later this year.

If approved by the local leadership, the proposed stadium could open ahead of the 2023 League One season. The estimated 12-month construction schedule is proposed to begin in Spring 2022.
