2019 eastern pennsylvania ncs state cup
Welcome To The 2019 Eastern Pennsylvania NCS State Cup
The Story:
Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer is excited and proud to introduce the 2019 Outdoor Cup season. This year, more than 1,000 teams and 10,000 players will compete in the Turkey Hill Challenge Cup, Presidents Cup and NCS State Cup, making the three competitions the premier events on the Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer calendar.
The journey begins March 16 and continues into June. It’s a grueling stretch filled with challenges, most notably the weather. But when the medals are placed around your neck at the Cup Finals and the trophies are lifted, we hope it’s all worth it. Eastern Pennsylvania Youth Soccer would like to wish every player, coach, team and family a safe and rewarding cup season. We look forward to following the action and to crowning state champions in May and June.
They Said It:
"We've been playing these guys for years. They beat us. We beat them. We respect the heck out of them. We really do. We know those guys. They know how we play. It's awesome. It's the way it's supposed to be." - Tom Quintois, PA Dominion FC 04 head coach, on State Cup rival Lower Merion SC Invictus. Those teams have met in the last two State Cup Finals with each picking up a victory.
