The American Premier Soccer League (APSL) is an American soccer league. The league is officially affiliated with the United States Adult Soccer Association (USASA), and qualifies for the U.S. Open Cup through USASA channels.

Competition format

The official regular season runs from April through August.^[2] For the playoffs, the four top seeded teams face each other in the Semifinals and Championship games. The APSL also organizes a Tournament (Fall Season Tournmanent) that runs from September to December in which NPSL and PDL are invited to compete along with the APSL teams.

Organization

The APSL is organized in a mostly decentralized structure and is managed as a team-run league. Each year the member clubs help elect a Commissioner, Treasurer and Secretary and a Board of Directors. Each team is individually owned and operated, and is responsible for maintaining league minimum standards. New teams seeking membership into the APSL are subject to approval from an executive committee of existing team owners. Member clubs have the right to make localized decisions for their respective markets, conferences and regions based on what they believe is best for their particular region.

The current Commissioner is Bert Mahecha.
