CCL Field Grows for 2024

By Sean McCaffery, September 22, 2021

Like the expanded format of Leagues Cup, this CCL event may be expanding to build interest in the three nation World Cup hosted by a trio of region members, USA, Mexico & Canada.

Here, it now grows to 27 teams as 22 join the Opening Round, the balance in the Round of 16. The latter group will consist of MLS, Liga MX & CPL top teams, joined by Lamar Hunt US Open Cup  and Canadian Championship winners. 

Leagues Cup 2023 Update

By Sean McCaffery, September 22, 2021

Let's try this one on for size, Liga MX & MLS will both take a month off for these games. How will that work with the northern teams in our domestic league, with cold weather at the start & end, or end even more so or a more congested schedule, neither are to me a good option. Interspersing the games throughout the season may be a better fit, make the games special, build interest in fans of both leagues in the other. I do want to see who my fav team takes on in a week or 3  as they face another in league play.
