NASL Championship Final 2017 is the North American Soccer League's postseason championship match of the 2017 season which determined the NASL Champion.
Miami FC and San Francisco Deltas finished 1st and 2nd respectively in both the Spring and Fall seasons by wide margins. Miami FC's regular season record (21 wins, 6 draws, 5 losses, 69 points) was the best in modern NASL history. The New York Cosmos clinched the last playoff spot on the last day of the regular season. North Carolina FC also earned a spot in The Championship. Due to Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico FC was forced to abandon Juan Ramón Loubriel Stadium for their last five home games, which were moved to other teams venues or to neutral sites. The rescheduled games raised money for hurricane relief.[1]
