NATIONAL PROFESSIONAL SOCCER LEAGUE II

The 'National Professional Soccer League' was a professional indoor soccer league in the USA. It started out as the 'American Indoor Soccer Association' in 1984 but changed its name to the National Professional Soccer League in 1990. During the summer of 2001, the league disbanded and the six surviving teams formed the Major Indoor Soccer League, which would later absorb three teams from the World Indoor Soccer League.
Beginning in 1989, the NPSL had a unique scoring system where goals were worth 1, 2, or 3 points depending upon distance or game situation.
