The 2017 Première ligue de soccer du Québec season is the sixth season of play for the Première ligue de soccer du Québec, a Division 3 semi-professional soccer league in the Canadian soccer pyramid and the highest level of soccer based in the Canadian province of Québec.

CS Mont-Royal Outremont was the defending champion from 2016.

AS Blainville won the league championship this season.

Changes from 2016

[edit]

For the third season running, the league will feature a total of seven teams. Dynamo de Québec & CS St-Hubert will begin their first season in the league,[1] while Lakeshore SC & Ottawa Fury FC Academy departed after the 2016 season.

Starting this year, the league champion was granted a place in the next year's Canadian Championship. As a result, the Inter-Provincial Cup was discontinued.[2]

Cup

[edit]

The cup tournament is a separate contest from the rest of the season, in which all seven teams from the league take part, and is unrelated to the season standings. It is not a form of playoffs at the end of the season (as is typically seen in North American sports), but is a competition running in parallel to the regular season (similar to the Canadian Championship or the FA Cup), albeit only for PLSQ teams. All matches are separate from the regular season, and are not reflected in the season standings.

The 2017 PLSQ Cup maintained the same format as the previous seasons, as a two-game aggregate knockout tournament with a single match final.[5] As defending champion, AS Blainville were granted a bye for the first round.[6]
