MSYSA Junior State Cup

What is the MSYSA Junior State Cup?

This tournament is designed to provide the highest quality of competition for Michigan teams in the U10 – U12 age groups.

There are two divisions within each age group. At U10, there is a 7v7 division and 9v9 division. At U11 and U12, there is a First Division and a Second Division.  The U11 and U12 First Divisions are primarily composed of Director’s Academy teams, while the Second Divisions are a mix of teams from all MSYSA-affiliated leagues, including the Director’s Academy. Teams that play in the U12 First Division are competing to earn a spot in NLC the following year at U13.

The Junior State Cup a great precursor to playing in the State Cup, Michigan State Premier Soccer Program, National League Conferences, Elite 64 and E64 Regional League, and others. Come challenge your team and see what they can do!
