    Spring and Fall, is there a table for each? or will it be a combination of both seasons? [I'm guessing a table for each season].
    The Independent Cup will be played between the Spring and Fall seasons.

    NISA announced last fall that they were switching to a calendar year schedule in 2022. The season will run March to November.

    good thing they didn't have to pay an expansion fee, so they can use the money they didn't spend there and didn't spend on worker's comp insurance to maybe pay someone they hired to do work for them.

    but open system blah blah blah.

    the team played several preseason games and had a player who scored several goals once, so they should be fine.

    Whelp, at least one of the owners didn't come at night and remove half of the astroturf.

    In September [2016], it was reported that [Rayo OKC] minority owner Sean Jones had part of the temporary artificial soccer field removed during the night and held at an undisclosed location to protect his investment pending a resolution. After a week and a half of negotiations, it was reported that Rayo OKC management and Sean Jones had reached a mutual agreement and the missing portions of the artificial playing turf were returned in time for the team's next home game.

    What Paul said ... still the most bizarre thing that I've ever heard of happening in a minor league soccer owner dispute.

    I'm thinking D1 and D2 must be national and D3 can be regional is a good idea for how to implement this.

    Actually having reviewed the standards I think the requirements do allow for regional leagues.

    It would be great if Syracuse and Rochester and a Buffalo team could all be in the same system.

    Sorry aleaguer, the league didn't bail out AC Syracuse, they have a new investor. I wish him/her luck. Taking over a club with such a poor beginning can not be easy. We'll see what they do.

    then we are left with the sorta inconvenient question of why they approved the original owners in the first place.

    Vetting owners is something only the billionaires' leagues do. In the open system anyone can start a club: a local community organization; international money launderers; a Segunda Division team; or a bunch of Brazilian speculators, all are welcome.
