The 2022 USL League One season will be the fourth season of USL League One. The regular season is scheduled to begin on April 2 and ends on October 15, 2022.[1] The playoffs are scheduled to begin as early as October 21 and end no later than November 6.

Eleven teams will participate in the 2022 season. Four reserve teams operated by clubs in Major League Soccer that participated in the 2021 season Fort Lauderdale CF, New England Revolution II, North Texas SC and Toronto FC II will begin play in MLS's new developmental league MLS Next Pro in 2022.[2] They will be replaced by expansion franchises Central Valley Fuego FC and Northern Colorado Hailstorm FC, and by Charlotte Independence, who decided to move from USL Championship to USL League One.[3][4][5]

Union Omaha are the defending champions of both the regular season and playoffs, having defeated Greenville Triumph in the 2021 final
