The prestigious 2021 US Youth Soccer Midwest Presidents Cup arrives in West Chester, Ohio this week and will take to the field at Voice of America MetroPark, June 17-21, 2021. Over 2,000 local players and 9,000 out-of-town athletes and spectators will participate in the five day tournament. The influx of visitors will bring an estimated $4.3 million in local economic impact to surrounding communities.

Teams representing 13U-18U/19U age divisions have earned a spot in the 2021 US Youth Soccer Midwest Presidents Cup by qualifying through their respective state tournaments.
