American soccer writing, history & data.
Please check out my Atom and RSS feeds (your choice) where you'll get reminders when I post pieces on occasion on this site's soccer blog.
I'm also on Bluesky if you want to see my more cheeky, off-the-cuff soccer (and other) takes. @dancreel.com on Bluesky
Update: 14 April 2026
We've made a ton of updates to the Soccer Almanac site. A new search box is available on every page to help find specific information you'll be looking for. In addition, we've done a complete refresh of the look and feel of the site.
The navbar now includes ways to look for clubs, teams, individuals, and venues. These include alpha views as well as views by state.
I've added everyone who has been admitted into the National Soccer Hall of Fame. A lot of the HOFers only have basic information, but that will get filled out over time.
Finally, the biggest update is the addition of a structure that so we can start adding data for cup competitions! Right now we just have the 1995 U.S. Open Cup because it was a good example for testing the back and front ends.
