The 1988 Canadian Soccer League season was the second season of play for the Canadian Soccer League, a Division 1 men's soccer league in the Canadian soccer pyramid.
Montreal Supra joined the league as an expansion franchise, entering the East Division.
The National Capitals Pioneers went bankrupt in their inaugural season, but the club was re-structured and renamed as the Ottawa Intrepid. They also moved their home stadium to Ottawa, after playing the previous year in Aylmer, Quebec
Similar to the previous season, the teams played an unbalanced schedule with two-thirds of a team's matches coming against teams in their own division. Following the season, the top three teams in each division would advance to the playoffs, with the division leaders earning a first round bye, to designate a national champion club.
The following awards and nominations were awarded for the 1988 season.
