The 2023 Cleveland SC season is the club's sixth season of existence and sixth consecutive season in the National Premier Soccer League (NPSL), the fourth tier of American soccer. The season covers the period from July 25, 2022 to the start of the 2024 NPSL season. Cleveland will take part in the U.S. Open Cup for the second time in club history, to go with normal league competition in the NPSL.

Review and events[edit]

U.S. Open Cup[edit]

During the 2022 season, Cleveland SC won a third-consecutive Rust Belt Conference championship and made a playoff run to the Midwest Region title game, falling at that stage against Muskegon Risers.[1] As a regional finalist, Cleveland sat eighth in the NPSL priority order and earned a second straight berth in the U.S. Open Cup. In the first round, they were drawn against Lionsbridge, a USL League Two club from Virginia. The match was scheduled at Drive Morris Stadium in North Olmsted, Ohio, a stadium that Cleveland SC had never played a game at before.[2]
