FRISCO, Texas (June 18, 2025) – Five thrilling days of Regional Presidents Cup competition saw 104 teams punch tickets to the 2025 US Youth Soccer National Presidents Cup.
Games were played across the country, with the action taking place in Valley Forge, Pa. (East), St. Louis, Mo. (Midwest), Plano, Texas (South), and Boise, Idaho (Far West).
For all teams, this marked the second step of the Presidents Cup pathway after competing at the state level to earn a spot at their regional events. While each step provides a unique experience, many of the coaches in attendance talked about the significance of playing new opponents from outside of their state this week.
“It was an amazing experience,” said Leahi SC ‘12G Premier Green (HI) coach Karlin Wurlitzer. “Five games, five very hard opponents. A couple of good goals, a couple of tough moments that we had to learn from; we got everything from this tournament and we’re super proud of the girls and super happy with how everything turned out.”
