The CSL currently has teams in California, Nevada, and Arizona. The teams are divided into two divisions: the Premier Division and the Division 1.
- The Premier Division is the top division in the league.
- The Division 1 is the second division in the league.
Championship
The CSL season culminates in a championship tournament. The top teams from each division qualify for the tournament, and the winner is crowned the CSL champion.
