both CSL and CFL are professional league.

Division3:It has at least 400 teams,playing with three segment,
preliminary: with 17 area, each area has their own league,top two teams of each league promoted to regional play-off
regional play-off: with 34 teams, they ware compartmentalize into 4 regions again, top two of each reagion participate in the final
final:8 teams play a cup tournament, Top two team promote to DIVISION 2
China FA Cup is open to all CSL and CFL team, some Division 2 teams will participate in the FA cup 2005 Season, The Champions of FA Cup win a place in Asian Champions League
CSL League Cup is open to all Super League teams.
SUPER CUP IS played between CSL champions and FA Cup champions
Chinese Football league started in 1954, most of the nowaday pro teams' history can trace to 1950s' and 1960s' Chinese Football Teans has intense regional representative.
CSL is at a hard time right now,but I still belive it will have a bright future, most of the CSL and CFL clubs are trying to be a highly commercial Football Club,Judging from synthesis complication,I think these four clubs keep ahead than other CSL clubs.
Dalian-they have the best youth system, it is also the richest privately owned football club in china,it's mascot is a little tiger, they have a support club called "BLUE FUROR WAVES"
Beijing- we have the most maturity training center of CSL, even China NT trains in our base,our mascot is a Golden Lion,our fans club is called "GREEN HURRICANE"
Shandong- their football school is the best in CSL, some players of the China U-17 NT are from this football school, their surpporter group is called"ORANGE FLAME"
Shanghai.s-this little ugly blue team have a damn pretty stadium,they also have some famous youger stars,their mascot is a panther,their surpporter group is called"BLUE DEVIL",another supporter club of shenhua is called"KHAN"
some of the Chinese clubs are now in serious finance crisis,especially these two clubs:
Shenzhen-they are champions of this season, but Jianlibao group is nearly go into liquidation,I have to say shenzhen is not a soccer crazey city, although they have two Pro Clubs-the other is Shenzhen kejian,which plays in CFL. Shenzhan's mascot is a big roc,their supporter group is called "ORANGE DANCING IN THE GRASSLAND"
Shanghai.G-last year's runners-up,but it seems CISCO group don't interest in football anymore,there fans club is another"BLUE DEVIL", another supporter club is called"SEA-GOD"
most of the Chinese Clubs have a rival,Sometimes they cares about the head-to-head records against their rivals more than who will be champions!
the famous local derby in China is Shanghai Shenhua VS Shanghai International, another Shanghai Club-Shanghai Zhongbang City Club is the runners-up of CFL, So Shanghai has Three CSL teams now.
Dalian Shide VS Shanghai Shenhua is considers as"CHINA Derby",But Dalian has a nearest rival-Liaonong,they are from the same province,Liaoning is the "King of China" in the 1980s,Dalian Rules Jia-A in the 1990s. Liaoning also has a local rival-Shenyang,both clubs based in the city of Shenyang, But Liaoning Team often plays in other cities as home city.
Dalian,Shanghai.S and Beijing Are three strong teams in the early year of Jia-A, both Dalian And Beijing Fans Hate Shanghai.S most, But Dalian And Beijing are in good relationship sometimes we are just like allies,
Shandong and Qingdao are in the same province, they always contempt each other, Chongqing and Sichuan are another pair of strive teams,Sichuan based in the city of Chengdu, Chengdu and Chongqing were once in the same province.Beijing and Tianjin are rivals too, they based in two neighborhood cities,their compete had a long history,even before the Pro league strted in 1994.But the Biggest Rival of Beijing I think is Shanghai.S now
Shenzhen Doesn't has a rival indeed, there is another CSL club-Wuhan club, Champions of CFL,they have a beautiful stadium.
