The 2026 USL Championship has a two-conference alignment. Each team will play every other team. With a total of 24 teams split into two conferences of 12, intra-conference foes play each other twice. Then, the remaining 12 games of the season are six games at home against non-conference opponents and six games on the road.

At the end of the regular season, the top eight teams from each conference qualify for the playoffs. From there, it is single-elimination playoffs to get to the USL Championship Final.

Broadcast information

Ahead of the 2024 USL Championship season, the broadcasters in the United States for the league changed. ESPN, which had the rights previously, was still a regular for games. ESPN+ had games, with ESPN and ESPN2 also occasionally showing contests.

However, as part of the change, CBS got in on the action. That change meant games were available on TV channels like CBS, CBS Sports Network and the CBS Sports Golazo Network. Coverage was also available on Paramount+.

Select Spanish-language contests are available on TUDN.
