| Approximately 3 million players between the ages of five and nineteen are registered with US Youth Soccer, which maintains a network of 55 state associations. Programs are administered with the help of over 300,000 coaches and 500,000 volunteers. |
| |
| US Youth Soccer offers both recreational and competitive programs. The recreational programs offer great opportunities for players primarily interested in fun, fitness and friendship. Small-sided games are encouraged for players under the age of 10. For more advanced players, US Youth Soccer offers highly competitive or select leagues. |
| |
| In addition, US Youth Soccer offers TOP Soccer (The Outreach Program for Soccer) for young athletes who are mentally or physically challenged and Soccer Start for young people living in economically disadvantaged areas. |
| |
| Every year US Youth Soccer also stages a National Youth Championship with different national titles up for grabs in boys and girls soccer for youth players from Under-14 through Under-29. The Under-19 Boys’ James P. McGuire Cup is the most prestigious of the competition’s trophies, dating back 62 yeas to 1935. First competed in 1980, the J. Ross Stewart Cup for Under-19 Girls is the oldest women’s youth trophy. |
