The 6th annual D.C. Cup is only months away and we look forward to welcoming teams from across the Americas. Teams from Los Angeles, Ontario, and many other states/provinces have signed up or have inquired. The tournament will continue to be open to U-9 – U-19 competitive level teams. This is a great way to complete the spring season before the summer season and get experience the Nation’s Capital.

Teams can enjoy playing soccer in the Nation’s Capital during Independence Day and can also enjoy our city with visits to the White House, United States Capitol, Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, and more. The Cup doesn’t have sprawling facilities with 20-25 fields at a complex because we are in a city, so at most of our facilities you will either see 1 field at a recreation center or 1 field at high school, but no more than 3 fields at any one facility. But the fields are quality. So the tournament’s ambiance gives our guests the feeling of playing in a city, and that is what you will experience by coming to the D.C. Cup. This is a true city event!

What truly separates the D.C. Cup is the balance between competition and experience. This is not just another tournament—it is an opportunity for players, families, and clubs to travel, compete, and create lasting memories together. From high-level matchups to walking through historic landmarks, the event provides a full experience both on and off the field.

With strong interest already building and limited space available, teams are encouraged to secure their spot early. The D.C. Cup continues to grow each year, and we anticipate another competitive and diverse field in 2026.

Whether you’re coming for the competition, the exposure, or the experience, the D.C. Cup delivers an environment unlike any other tournament in the region.
