On January 23, 2013, USL Pro announced an alliance with Major League Soccer. For the 2013 season, four MLS teams will affiliate with USL Pro teams in lieu of participating in the MLS Reserve League system. These MLS clubs will loan at least four of their reserve players to their USL Pro affiliate club for development purposes.

All USL Pro teams played two matches each with the remaining MLS Reserve League teams. Those matches counted toward the USL Pro standings, giving each team a total of 26 games.{{cite news |url=http://uslpro.uslsoccer.com/home/690349.html |title=USL PRO & MLS Announce Partnership |publisher=United Soccer Leagues (USL) |date=January 23, 2013 |access-date=January 27, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130126070047/http://uslpro.uslsoccer.com/home/690349.html |archive-date=2013-01-26 |url-status=dead }}
