EDP, one of the country’s largest leagues with over 3,500 teams located on the east coast of the United States, has entered into a long-term agreement with US Youth Soccer to manage four US Youth Soccer Conferences in the East Region starting in 2018-19.
These conferences are:
In addition to managing these conferences, EDP will see its league play, tournaments and college showcases sanctioned by US Youth Soccer.
Beginning in the fall of 2018, these US Youth Soccer Conferences managed by EDP offer an expected two tiers of divisions in addition to the existing EDP programming. Both EDP and new to EDP teams will be eligible to apply for these divisions with top teams advancing directly into the US Youth Soccer National League and the Regional Championships in the US Youth Soccer National Championship Series (NCS).
To learn more, see the full press release & US Youth Soccer announcement.
This council was created to be the voice of our clubs. Members will provide feedback and strategic guidance in order to set the trajectory of this platform from a developmental standpoint and ensure that our course remains in-line with that of our clubs.
