Notes
- ^ a b The Commissioner's Cup was first created in 1991 to honor the American Professional Soccer League regular season champion and was awarded through the 1996 season. It was revived in 2005 to honor the USL First Division regular season champion and was awarded retroactively to the teams which had amassed the most points in previous A-League seasons from 1997 to 2004. The Commissioner's Cup is currently given to the USL Pro regular season champion.
- ^ a b The United Soccer Leagues took over operations of the Edmonton Aviators following financial troubles by the ownership group and the team finished the season as Edmonton Football Club.
