The second American Soccer League was established in the summer of 1933 following the collapse of the first league with the same name, which lasted from 1921 until spring 1933. The new league was created on a smaller scale and with smaller budgets. This league existed until over-expansion and financial limitations led to its collapse in 1983. Two successor leagues later operated.
