Temecula FC Confirmed for the 2025 NISA Pro Cup

TEMECULA, CA (June 6, 2025) – The National Independent Soccer Association (NISA) announces Temecula FC will participate in the 2025 NISA Pro Cup this fall. 

Temecula FC began as a semi-professional club established in 2013, fielding sides in the National Premier Soccer League, the Southwest Premier League, and most recently in NISA Nation. Temecula FC has been an outstanding member of the full-year NISA Nation incubator league since 2023. The club has made significant progress in taking steps as it transitions to the professional level and continues to work with city officials on building a stadium and training ground. 

“We are honored and incredibly proud to represent the City of Temecula and the surrounding region in the 2025 NISA Pro Cup,” said club owner Brandon Jantz. “This community has shown unwavering support for our club over the years—from our passionate Quail Army supporters to the dedicated coaching staff and families who make up our youth program. Temecula is a special place, and the commitment to excellence and unity here continues to inspire everything we do. As we take this next step toward bringing professional soccer to our home, we do so with the full belief that this valley deserves it. We’re excited for what lies ahead and grateful to share this journey with our community.”

Under the leadership of owner Brandon Jantz and Head Coach John Oliver, Temecula FC has established a competitive team in the Southwest and Coast Regions of NISA Nation. The club has also developed young talent in the Temecula Valley, including former Temecula FC forward Diego Valle, who scored 12 goals, recorded 11 assists, and won the 2023 NISA Nation MVP award. Temecula FC also recently advanced to the Raul Briones Cup final and will face fellow NISA Nation side Worldwide Problems FC on Saturday, June 7, at Biola University's Al Barbour Stadium. 

NISA is excited to welcome owner Brandon Jantz, Temecula FC, and the Quail Army to the tournament.
