NOTE: Those of you coming here seeking attendance information for the outdoor National Premier Soccer League, I’m sorry, this is data on the former indoor league with the same initials. Crowd figures for the outdoor league are hard to come by, and believe me, I have tried.
Year-by-year attendance figures for the league that began life as the American Indoor Soccer Association and became the National Professional Soccer League. As you can see, I’m missing some team information. If you can fill in the blanks, please let me know.
