The Nation's Capital Cup presented by Elite Tournaments and McLean Youth Soccer will be held in Fairfax, Virginia. With weather being such a big factor this time of year, all games will be scheduled on synthetic turf fields. Teams will receive three games minimum, and all age groups will be played in Championship format with awards being presented to both teams in the final of their bracket. The event this weekend will be BOYS only for teams of all levels in the U9-U19 age groups.

Leveling The Playing Field collects used sports equipment to give to underprivileged communities where children may not have affordable access to sports equipment and programs. They’ve donated over 100,000 items to youth sports organizations allowing them to reduce the cost of entry into these programs. It has also allowed these programs to hire and train more staff for additional programs and more personalized coaching. We will be collecting used sports equipment for Leveling The Playing Field at all of our tournament locations! Drop off donations at the headquarters area or with your field marshal.
