Some of the largest youth soccer facilities on the East Coast – including the all-turf River City SportsPlex and the natural grass fields at West Creek Complex, the multi-year host of the ECNL National Finals – will serve as two of the primary venues for the prestigious tournament.

In total, 18 field locations will be used throughout the event, including the facilities at Striker Park, Mary B. Stratton Park / Ukrops Park, the University of Richmond, the Bon Secours Washington Redskins Training Center and Randolph Macon College, among others. This year’s event will also reach as far as the new Virginia Soccer Training Center in Fredericksburg and the Warhill Sports Complex in Williamsburg.

Once again, the Jefferson Cup has partnered with Richmond-based goalkeeper academy ‘Own The Goal’ to provide attending keepers with clinics and showcase opportunities to supplement the game action. For the U11-U14 levels at the upcoming Girls Weekend, ‘Own The Goal’ and Richmond Strikers coaches will work with goalkeepers in a 90-minute clinic on March 18, giving players a chance to gain valuable instruction while also tuning up for the tournament and the upcoming season.
