USL Academy CLUBs may qualify for playoffs provided they have met the following criteria:
· Minimum of (12) games played during LEAGUE
· Minimum of (7) months active as a CLUB (i.e. preseason and two seasons)
· Minimum of (23) available and registered players
The top team from each division based on points-per-game will qualify for the playoffs (only if that specific division was active for two out of the three seasons). If a wildcard team is required due to an odd number of divisions, the wildcard will be the next highest team based on points-per-game for the entire LEAGUE.
