MLS NEXT recognizes that players develop at different paces and offers four player designations to ensure flexibility and support for players at various stages of their development: Primary Players: These are full-time MLS NEXT players who are fully committed to the program. They exclusively participate in MLS NEXT competitions and do not play high school soccer or other non-MLS NEXT events. Primary players benefit from elite-level coaching, training, and competition.

They can participate in up to 12 MLS NEXT matches during the season, balancing their development across both environments.

This designation allows clubs to scout and provide opportunities to players without requiring a full-time commitment. Late Developer Players: Late Developers are players who may not yet have reached the same level of physical growth as their peers of the same birth year but demonstrate significant potential. This designation provides an opportunity for these players to compete at an appropriate level while continuing to develop their skills and confidence.
