The Major Arena Soccer League 2 (M2) is a North American indoor soccer that serves as the developmental league of the Major Arena Soccer League.

History

M2 launched in 2017 to "provide an outlet for teams to either reorganize for a re-emergence in the MASL or an avenue for teams to compete in smaller markets in hopes of rising to MASL status."[1] It was announced that M2 would have between 8 and 12 teams.[2]

Sponsorship

The official game ball is made by Mitre.[3][4]
