Spring season

edit

The 2020 Spring season began on February 28 and featured eight teams (five teams that also played in the Fall season, plus three new entries). It consisted of a single table instead of the conferences used during Fall. The top three teams would have qualified for the Playoffs, together with California United Strikers, already qualified because of their Fall season West Championship win.[10]

The spring season was suspended on March 12, for 30 days, due to the coronavirus pandemic.[11] The suspension was then extended in accordance with CDC guidelines[12] and eventually made permanent on April 27, 2020.[13]
