The Eastern Pennsylvania Presidents Cup Championships kicked off Saturday with twelve championship matches played at Lehigh County Fields. Each team played its final match seeking the Presidents Cup Championship.
More than 140 teams competed since March to make it to Saturday's finals. The next stop for the team is the US Youth Soccer Presidents Cup Region I Championships in Manchester, New Hampshire beginning on Friday, May 24. A victory there sends them to Auburndale, Florida for a shot at the national championship beginning Wednesday, July 10.
The US Youth Soccer Presidents Cup is designed for those teams seeking additional challenges to play against teams of similar abilities for a national title. The cup provides a progressive, competitive experience to teams that might not otherwise get the opportunity to participate in a series of unique experiences highlighting competition, camaraderie and community from the state to regional to national levels of US Youth Soccer.
