Mid-Atlantic Cup
Road to US Club Soccer National Cup Finals

The Mid-Atlantic Cup will accept the top 16 applicants (32 in some ages based on competition pool) in each State Cup bracket (U11–U19), separated by fall (U12-U14) and spring (U15-U19) seasons for younger and older age groups, respectively. The single-elimination format ensures quality matchups at every stage, with early rounds hosted by the higher seed and finals centrally hosted by the Mid-Atlantic Premier League.
