- ^Note 1 Teams qualify for the MLS Cup Conference Semifinals by finishing 1st, 2nd or 3rd in their respective conferences.
- ^Note 2 Since the LA Galaxy won both the 2011 MLS Supporters' Shield and the 2011 MLS Cup, a place in the 2012–13 CONCACAF Champions League became available. The Seattle Sounders, the 2011 MLS Supporters' Shield runner-up, had already qualified as they also won the 2011 U.S. Open Cup. Therefore, the CCL place went to Real Salt Lake, the 2011 MLS Supporters' Shield third place. Houston Dynamo, the 2011 MLS Cup runner-up, also qualified for the 2012–13 CONCACAF Champions League. All four teams directly enter the Group Stage as the Preliminary Round has been eliminated from CCL.
- ^Note 3 Toronto FC qualified for the 2011–12 CONCACAF Champions League as winners of the 2011 Canadian Championship.

Miscellany
Allocation Ranking
Houston is in the #2 position in the MLS Allocation Ranking. The allocation ranking is the mechanism used to determine which MLS club has first priority to acquire a U.S. National Team player who signs with MLS after playing abroad, or a former MLS player who returns to the league after having gone to a club abroad for a transfer fee. A ranking can be traded, provided that part of the compensation received in return is another club's ranking.[23]
International Roster Spots
It is uncertain how many international roster spots Houston has for the 2011 season. Each club in Major League Soccer is allocated 8 international roster spots, which can be traded. Houston has previously dealt one spot to New York on 17 March 2009[24] and dealt another spot to New York on 14 January 2005 while the Houston franchise was still based in San Jose.[25] Press reports did not indicate if or when these roster spots would revert to Houston. On 21 July 2011, Houston traded an international roster spot for the remainder of the 2011 season only to Portland Timbers.[26]
The club also dealt one spot to San Jose on 14 August 2009[27] but that roster spot was to return to Houston after the 2010 season.[28]
There is no limit on the number of international slots on each club's roster. The remaining roster slots must belong to domestic players. For clubs based in the United States, a domestic player is either a U.S. citizen, a permanent resident (green card holder) or the holder of other special status (e.g., refugee or asylum status).[23]
Future Draft Pick Trades
Future picks acquired: 2012 SuperDraft Round 3 pick acquired from D.C. United; 2012 SuperDraft Round 3 pick acquired from New York Red Bulls; 2014 SuperDraft Round 4 pick acquired from Los Angeles Galaxy
Future picks traded: 2012 SuperDraft Round 4 pick traded to C.D. Chivas USA; 2013 SuperDraft Round 4 pick traded to Colorado Rapids; 2014 SuperDraft Round 4 pick traded to Portland Timbers; 2015 SuperDraft Round 4 pick traded to Columbus Crew
MLS Rights to Other Players
Houston holds the MLS rights to Euan Holden through SuperDraft day 2012 due to drafting the player in the 2010 MLS SuperDraft and Holden instead choosing to sign overseas.
