PORTLAND, Ore. — The Portland Timbers today released the club’s 2011 Major League Soccer Reserve Division schedule. The Reserve Division season will consist of a 10-game regular season against five regional opponents.
Under the direction of Timbers assistant coach Amos Magee, the Timbers Reserves will play the reserve teams for Chivas USA, LA Galaxy, San Jose Earthquakes, Seattle Sounders FC and Vancouver Whitecaps FC twice – once at home and once away. Reserve matches will take place the day after the first teams play or during the middle of that game week.
For the Reserve Division, MLS’ 18 clubs have been split into three regions consisting of six teams each. The best eight teams in the Reserve Division will advance to the playoffs, which will determine a champion.
In addition to participating in the Reserve Division, MLS reserve squads may also schedule matches against other teams, including NASL or USL-Pro clubs.
