US Youth Soccer National League back for 2nd year at the Weston Cup Soccer Tournament
The
US Youth Soccer National League will add the Weston Cup as a play weekend as they did in 2010. The US Youth Soccer National League competition is for the nation’s top teams in the Under-15, Under-16 and Under-17 boys and girls age groups, consisting of a total of eight teams per gender age group. The National League offers additional exposure to collegiate, professional and U.S. National Team coaches and offers top notch competition. National League teams continue play in their respective US Youth Soccer State Championships and Regional Leagues, as well.
Teams play a seven-game schedule facing each team within its age group one time. The League consists of six weekends of play, with the first two being held in conjunction with the Men’s and Women’s NCAA College Cup.
The top two teams, from each age group, advance to the US Youth Soccer National Championships, and the top four teams, from each age group, secure a spot to return to National League play the following season.
The Irish are coming! Cresent College from Limerick, Ireland have entered two boys U18 teams in the Weston Cup for 2011. Along with playing in the Weston Cup Cresent College will visit Orlando following the tournament.
