Over 260 high level teams set to kickoff 2023 Penn Fusion Girls Winter Showcase

Over President’s Day Weekend, Penn Fusion Soccer Academy and Sideline Soccer Solutions are hosting some of the top teams in the country for the 2023 Penn Fusion Girls Winter Showcase.

Set for February 18-20 in the Philadelphia metro area, the Penn Fusion Girls Winter Showcase will feature 268 teams across the U15-U19 age groups. Well established as one of the Northeast region’s top showcase events, the showcase will include many of the “best of the best” teams, and will attract an array of college coaches from NCAA Division I, Division II and Division III programs.

Attending teams are representing several of the nation’s most competitive leagues, including the ECNL, Girls Academy, US Youth Soccer National League and US Club Soccer National Premier Leagues (NPL), among others. The field of teams is highlighted by reigning Girls Academy national champions, several dozen ECNL and GA playoff teams, along with numerous USYS State Cup and Regional Champions.

The showcase schedule will provide a multitude of cross-league matchups, setting the stage for many intriguing showdowns in a high-level college recruiting environment. Two of the most competitive divisions in the event will be the U16 Red Division and the U17 Red Division, which SoccerWire has provided team-by-team previews for:
