You would have to contact the league office for this fee.

I think that it's around 30k. But I could be wrong.

Last figure I saw was 40k. Now thats to start a franchise, which I believe is different then paying your annual dues to stay in the League.

PSL is around 75k with A-League over 100k...not positive on that. Try emailing someone at USL

It was reported 2 years ago in the Toledo paper that the PDL Toledo Slayers were invested eigher 10k or 100k to start up the team. I wish I could remember which it was. I think it was 100k.

I think I was thinking about the yearly dues, when I mentioned 30k. The USL also give perspective owners a sample budget and potential revenue list. It's a good way to try and figure out how much it's going to cost to run a team. I think that a lot of PDL teams are working on a budget of 100 - 200k. There are teams that have both larger and smaller budgets.
