california youth cup
The CALIFORNIA YOUTH CUP is a boys' youth soccer festival that will take place every June in Fresno, California. While this year's event is for boys only, the cup will be open to girls' teams in 2025.
The tournament comes to life as an initiative to present Fresno and the Central Valley as a premier youth soccer event venue.
It aims to allow our young players to showcase their talent at the highest level and to potentially make our region a hotspot for youth soccer.
Our tournament will consistently host high-level youth teams from around the world with the intention of creating top-tier competition.
At the same time, it aims to generate networking opportunities for players, coaches, and clubs. Our main goal is to enhance the quality of our game and provide advancement opportunities for high-level players.
