Construction has started on a permanent stadium for Greenville Triumph SC and Greenville Liberty SC, with the first matches expected in 2026.
The multi-use facility, located within BridgeWay Station in Mauldin, is being built through a public-private partnership, including $4 million from the City of Mauldin, $10 million from the State of South Carolina, and more than $13.5 million from Greenville Pro Soccer (GPS), along with donated land and in-kind contributions from Hughes Investments, the developer of BridgeWay Station.
“From day one, our goal has been to create an unforgettable matchday experience for Triumph and Liberty fans, and this new stadium delivers on that promise,” said Wallace Cheves, chairman of Greenville Pro Soccer. “BridgeWay Station will give them a true destination before and after the match—with restaurants, shops, and gathering spaces that make gameday an all-day celebration.”
GPS is working with the City of Mauldin, local schools and businesses, BridgeWay Station and other partners to develop an operations plan that includes strategies for parking, pedestrian safety and mobility, traffic flow, rideshare operations and shuttling services. Once finalized, these plans will be shared with the public.
The stadium, which will accommodate up to 6,300 spectators, is designed to create an intimate fan experience while blending with the surrounding community. Beyond professional men’s and women’s soccer, the venue will host youth and college sports, concerts, festivals, marching band competitions, and other community events.
“The City of Mauldin is proud to partner in creating a world-class facility that will strengthen our community, drive economic growth, and put Mauldin on the map as a premier destination in South Carolina,” said Mauldin Mayor Terry Merritt.
The new stadium is the latest investment in BridgeWay Station, reinforcing Greenville Pro Soccer’s commitment to the region and providing a permanent home for fans of both the Triumph and Liberty SC teams.
