(June 3, 2022)<\/strong> \u2013 Top teams from NorCal Premier\u2019s league-based and cup-based competitions have now qualified to US Club Soccer\u2019s national postseason. Fourteen boys and girls teams earned berths to the National Premier Leagues (NPL) postseason after a competitive NorCal NPL regular season, capped by the NorCal College Showcase two weeks ago. Additionally, 12 teams claimed spots to the National Cup XXI Finals \u2013 the prize for winning their respective divisions at the NorCal State Cup three weeks ago.\n\nThe National Premier Leagues postseason features a single stage for girls teams, so the top performing team from U-14 through U-18\/19 age groups earn advancement to the <a href=\"https:\/\/usclubsoccer.org\/npl-finals\/\">2022 NPL Finals<\/a>, which will be held July 7-11 in Denver, Colorado. The NPL boys postseason, however, features two stages: the NPL Boys East\/West Playoffs and the NPL Finals. NorCal\u2019s top two teams from U-14 through U-17 age groups gain entry to the <a href=\"https:\/\/usclubsoccer.org\/npl-west-playoffs\/\">NPL Boys West Playoffs<\/a>, which will be held June 24-28 in Denver, Colorado. NPL Boys East\/West Playoffs participants compete for advancement to the NPL Finals, where National Premier Leagues titles are won.
