Puerto Rican teams qualify for the CCL through the Caribbean Football Union. The CFU Club Championship is a tournament usually held in February and March. Puerto Rico has not entered a team in the tournament in the last couple of years so if PRFC wants in they could probably get an invitation. They would have to finish in the top 3 of that tournament to qualify for the CCL.
They will probably end up in the 2017 CFU Club Championship, if they get in the top 3, they will qualify for the 17-18 Champions league. The Puerto Rico Islanders had a great run in the 08-09 Concacaf champions league barely losing to a Mexican team in the semi's.
Would be interesting to see, there's a lot of questions on how PRFC is going to be able to participate in the CFU. It was pretty well known that PR Islanders owners had a lot of pull in the federation and local politics , something melo doesn't. It will depend if the local semi-pro clubs and the federation agree on re-establishing the national cup. The CFU was a big pull for the Islanders and PRFC need to secure its spot in the competition

PRFC 3-3 Costa Rica, close door friendly. Rumor has it that the clubs official kit will be an ounced before the NYC friendly
PLAYERS AND COACHES REACT TO COSTA RICA FRIENDLY San Juan, Puerto Rico - As part of their preparations for the upcoming inaugural season, Puerto Rico FC faced the Costa Rica National Team in a friendly. The Central American country is currently ranked 25th in FIFA’s World Ranking and is preparing for the Copa America Centenario. PRFC traveled to Orlando from their camp in IMG Academy in Bradenton, FL to face the “Ticos”. Despite the match being stopped at the 75th minute because of a thunderstorm, the players and staff were really happy with the match. “We knew that they were a good team, quarter final of the World Cup, so they're at another level that we had not seen. At the end of the day it’s eleven against eleven, but against teams like that you have to be patient and do your job. Defend when you have to and attack when you have to”, said PRFC Forward Pedro Mendes. Sidney Rivera echoed his teammate’s words about the match and his team’s performance: “Costa Rica is a great team that has a great touch on the ball. We learned that we can play at the same level of our rival but there is still a lot of work to be done, even though we're happy with what we showed today.” PRFC’s Head Coach, Adrian Whitbread was also satisfied with the good start of training camp: “The quality of the game was very good and the performance of the team was very good. There is still some fine details to work out but we look forward to the rest of camp and our upcoming match in Florida.” Puerto Rico FC will face the United States U17 National Team, squad that is permanently based in IMG Academy. The team will return to Puerto Rico on Friday, May 3rd, to continue its preseason and prepare for the Clasico de Futbol in New York on June 11th. http://www.puertoricofc.com/news/2016/06/01/players-and-coaches-react-to-costa-rica-friendly
http://bshambles.blogspot.com/2016/06/naslmap-final-spring-update-indy.html According to this Puerto Rico had the second most tweets of any team during this past week. That is a good sign for a strong start I think.
Tweets are one thing but Boriquenos on the main land won't fill seat in the stadium back home. I'm still excited to see them play though.
