2014 NASL Playoffs
Soccer Bowl 2014 will be contested by the winners of the spring and fall seasons hosting the next best two teams in the full year regular season table. The half-season champions will earn the #1 & #2 seeds, with the higher seed going to the team with the better full-season record. The two next-best teams will earn the #3 & #4 seeds. (in the event that the same team wins both half-season championships, they will be the #1 seed, with seeds 2-4 going to the three next-best full-season teams.) The semi-finals will take place on November 8 and 9, with the #1 seed hosting the #4 seed and #2 hosting #3. The winners will meet in the Championship game (Soccer Bowl 2014) hosted by the team with the higher seed, on November 15.
