yes the rules do change each year however the one consistency every year is that only league matches count hence the reason it is in bold on the official website here is how the rules were defined before you began editing after the competition had already ended for this year supporters of portland and vancouver have continued to hold a cup competition for and portland and vancouver will include all scheduled regular season usl matches played between the two should the two clubs remain tied on points after all matches played away goals will be used as the first tiebreaker to determine the cup winner furthermore you continue to revert to references that have no reference to the cascadia cup at all while deleting references that do reference the cascadia cup
