U.S. Soccer laid off up to 30 employees in a “major reorganization ahead of its relocation from Chicago to new headquarters in the Atlanta metro region.” Sources said that the cuts were “felt across the organization, including the marketing, sales, sporting, refereeing and coaching departments.” While some employees were “let go immediately,” others were given a “termination date in April 2025 and will remain employed until then.” Separately, many others have been “offered a relocation package and invited to continue their employment at the federation’s new headquarters” in Fayetteville, Ga., slated to open in 2026. Those employees were “given 60 days to decide whether they would make the move or not.” The layoffs come amidst a “period of surging revenue for the federation” (THE ATHLETIC, 10/9).
