MLS Structure

The MLS comprises 28 teams, 25 in the US and 3 in Canada. The league has a fixed membership like most sports leagues in the US and Canada, making it one of the few soccer leagues that do not use a promotion and relegation process. Instead of operating as an association of independently owned clubs, MLS is a single entity in which each team is owned by the league.

The MLS regular season usually starts in late February and runs through mid-October, with each team playing 34 games. After the regular season, the team with the best record is awarded the Supporters’ Shield. Following the regular season is a postseason knockout tournament to determine the league champion. Fourteen teams participate in the MLS Cup play-offs. All rounds in the postseason are single-match eliminations hosted by the higher seed. The conference Semifinals and Conference Finals are played in a home-and-away format.
