Soccer Bowl
The NASL Championship, also known as the Soccer Bowl, is the annual championship competition of the North American Soccer League. There, the two top teams face off in the final to determine the winner of the NASL Trophy.
After the 1966 World Cup was successfully televised in the United States, two new leagues were formed.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=North American Soccer League I (NASL) 1967-1984 - The Story Of The NASL )〕 With international and national sanctioning from FIFA, the CFSA and USSFA, the United Soccer Association was created by a consortium known as the North American Soccer League. The second, independent league, enacted without sanction, was the National Professional Soccer League. By the following year, the two leagues merged and created the original North American Soccer League. Between 1968 and 1974 the championship game, or series ''(on three occasions)'', was titled the NASL Final, and no title match was held in 1969. From 1975 to 1984 it became the Soccer Bowl. The winner of the NASL Finals received the NASL trophy. During the Soccer Bowl years the trophy was interchangeably regarded by association as the Soccer Bowl trophy, though the official title remained the same.
The concept for the Soccer Bowl began in 1975 by then NASL Commissioner Phil Woosnam, who was trying to build a neutral-site championship event in the mold of the NFL's Super Bowl. Unlike the Super Bowl, the match was not denoted by Roman numerals (Super Bowl XXI, for example). Instead, the last two digits of the year would be used to denote which game it was (e.g., Soccer Bowl '78). The original NASL's last Soccer Bowl took place in early October 1984 in a best-of-three series, as the league ceased operation in 1985.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=October 1, 1984 – Chicago Sting vs. Toronto Blizzard )〕
With the formation of the new North American Soccer League in 2009 and their commencement of play in 2011, the Soccer Bowl name has been used as the name of both the championship match and championship trophy of the new league. The 2011 and 2012 titles were decided in a two-game aggregate finish. Since 2013 the championship has been a single-game final.
