For years, soccer lost its soul. Somewhere along the way, it stopped being about joy and creativity. It stopped being about the player. It became business. Politics. Control. A place where athletes had to fit in, follow rules, and dim their light just to survive.
How to Join Liga X: Your Path Starts with The Contender Series
It’s your chance to step into something bigger. On this page, you’ll find everything you need to prepare, compete, and prove you belong in Liga X. I believe in the power of those who show up hungry and leave it all on the field. Wishing you strength, focus, and fire. Hope to see you at the draft. - Yannick Koffi
The only way to enter Liga X is through The Contender Series — our official trial and selection process for athletes who are serious about rewriting their story and competing at the highest level. This is not your typical tryout. It’s a call to action for those who feel overlooked, underappreciated, or ready for a change.
This year’s trials will take place in three locations: Maryland, Lima, and Florida. At each site, only 25 players will be selected to attend. From those 25, just 11 will earn contracts. The bar is high, but so is the reward.
Every player starts fresh. Background, reputation, or past experience won’t give you a head start. Everyone will live in the same house, train together, and be evaluated daily. We are building something greater than a team — we are building a culture. Skill alone isn’t enough. We are looking for leadership, discipline, and commitment. We want athletes who show up on and off the field.
The 3-Step Process to Apply
Step 1: Choose Your Package.. You must first select a trial package. There are different levels based on your situation. If we’ve already identified you as a potential prospect or had conversations with you, you’re only eligible for the VIP package. That is because we spent time talking you and since you didn't trust the process then, now you have to truly earn it.
Step 2: Interview with the Founders.. This is the most important part. If your energy, attitude, or values do not match the standard of Liga X, you will not be allowed to participate — no matter how talented you are. We are protecting the integrity of the league. We are not just building teams, we are building a legacy.
Step 3: Earn your spot.. Once successful in the interview you are official on the roster and ready to fight for your spot!
For us, this is the most effective way to ensure we are selecting the right talent, not just based on skill but on mentality, consistency, and character. It also makes the experience more valuable for the athletes, giving them a true opportunity to grow, compete, and be seen. By living, training, and playing together, every moment becomes part of your evaluation. This isn’t just a trial. It’s a chance to show who you are when the lights are off and the pressure is real. If you’re ready for that, then you’re ready for Liga X.

Our Matches
How We Play
Liga X is structured into two conferences, with four teams on each side. The league runs in a tournament-style format, creating a fast-paced and competitive atmosphere from the first game to the last. Each season lasts 8 weeks, striking the perfect balance between intensity and sustainability.
Players stay sharp, avoid burnout, and have time between seasons to pursue personal goals or other career opportunities — something most leagues ignore but we prioritize.There are no long, drawn-out seasons. No meaningless games. Every match carries weight, and every performance counts.
At the end of each season, players are paid based on their ranking on the leaderboard. That ranking is determined strictly by your in-game performance. No agents, no behind-the-scenes deals. Just results. With us, your play does the talking. Everything you do on the pitch matters.
The Contender Series is a 3-day, high-level scouting and competition experience designed to identify and contract elite talent for Liga X. Players live together, train together, and compete head-to-head to earn a professional spot.
What happens during the 3-day trial?
Athletes will be tested across matches, drills, mental challenges, and evaluations. Cuts begin within the first 24 hours, so it’s essential to show up prepared — physically, mentally, and emotionally. We’re not just watching how you play.
How important is the interview?
The interview is crucial. It’s your chance to show who you are beyond the game. If your energy, attitude, or values don’t align with the standards of Pro X Sports, you will not be accepted, regardless of talent.
How many athletes are accepted per location?
Each location accepts only 25 athletes. From those, 11 contracts will be awarded. The competition is intense, and the selection process is built to ensure only the most talented and well-rounded players move forward.
What if I’ve already spoken to Pro X Sports or been scouted?
If we’ve had prior conversations with you or identified you as a prospect, you are only eligible for the VIP Package. This ensures you receive priority housing, support, and exposure based on your prior standing.
The Olympico SC training camp has been a strong reminder that this league is built on hard work, discipline, and accountability. From the very first day, athletes were shown that nothing will be given freely. Every opportunity must be earned, and only those who are willing to push themselves to the highest level will remain with the team.
The cleanup was organized as part of Olympico SC’s program of giving back to local communities. Punta Hermosa has welcomed the team warmly, offering training facilities, accommodations, and support.
Despite ultimately falling 3-2, the performance was nothing short of inspiring, especially given the mix of youth and emerging talent that Inferno brought to the pitch.
