Playoff Qualification
The top two teams from the North and the top two teams from the South will advance to the PUL Championship. The divisional rankings will be determined by overall win-loss record in the regular season (winning percentage). Win-loss record will include cross-divisional matches, and repeat opponents will be treated the same as all other games.
In the event of a tie, the first tiebreaker will be head-to-head record. The second tiebreaker will be the USAU algorithm (all games weighted equally). Should three or more teams tie, once any team is eliminated, the evaluation will return to the head-to-head record for the remaining teams followed by the USAU algorithm, if needed. The USAU algorithm is included in standings after the completion of Week 7.
The semifinals will be cross-divisional matchups with the North Division champion facing the second place team from the South Division and vice versa.

Playoff Qualification
For the 2023 PUL Championship, four teams qualified: the three divisional winners — DC Shadow (East), Minnesota Strike (Midwest) and Raleigh Radiance (South) — plus one wildcard.
The wildcard was a selection-committee decision rather than a record-based slot. New York Gridlock were chosen over the Philadelphia Surge, who finished 5-1; the two were widely seen as the only contenders for the place, and the decision was closely debated at the time.
2023 was the last season played under three divisions. From 2024 the league used two, North and South.

Playoff Qualification
For the 2022 PUL Championship, four teams qualified (each divisional winner* and one wildcard selection). The 2022 tiebreakers were the following in order: head-to-head, divisional record, and USAU Algorithm**. The wildcard slot was filled by the highest non-divisional winner, as ranked by the USAU Algorithm.
* Indy Red qualified as the Midwest representative after the Milwaukee Monarchs declined their championship bid.
** The USAU Algorithm has been modified to account for unbalanced schedules amongst teams. The USAU Algorithm is a ranking formula used for club/college rankings, and is based on point differential and strength of opponent.
