The Guam Soccer League (GSL) is the men's top level professional football league of the Guam Football Association in the United States territory of Guam. Since 2004, the GSL has had two levels, Division 1 and Division 2.[1] Since 2007, the league has adopted a longer season that starts in the fall and ends in the spring. Previously the GSL was divided into Spring and Fall seasons. When the champions of both seasons were different, a one-off match was played to decide the year's overall champion.
