AUBURNDALE, FL (June 3, 2022)- The 2022 Florida State Cup Final Four and Finals wrapped up at Lake Myrtle Sports Complex in Auburndale, Florida, on May 14-15, 2022.
The 2022 Florida State Cup event series began in the Fall of 2021 with the U18-19 boys and girls teams fighting for their chance to make it down to the Final Four. The opening round of play for the U13-17 teams kicked off on April 8-10, with almost one hundred (100) games played each day, Friday through Sunday. Two hundred ninety-four (294) teams from across the state competed for their chance to make it to the Final Four in their respective age group.
The Final Four matchups showcased the elite caliber of teams and comparable competition level as eleven (11) of the twenty-eight (28) games went into overtime. The championship games on Sunday proved to be just as heavily contested. Several matches came down to one big play making all the difference. Ultimately fourteen (14) teams reigned supreme to clinch the Florida State Champion title and have automatically earned their place at the US Youth Soccer Southern Regional in Murfreesboro, TN.
The Florida State Cup tournament is part of the US Youth Soccer National Championship Series. US Youth Soccer State Champions and selected wildcard teams through US Youth Soccer Regional Leagues in most age groups are eligible to compete in one of four US Youth Soccer Regional Championships.
