Why We Do This

Development Through Meaning

We're here to establish a culture where the game is celebrated — where kids dream, and where they build a relationship with the game before anything else. The game is not an object, an objective, or a task. It's a place to dream, to have fun, and to grow the deep love and passion for the game that so many countries around the world are raised on — a passion we want to help develop here in the United States.

When this tournament is done, we want every kid to go home more excited about the game, with a deeper relationship with it because of this experience. That's what we build here: a stage where what happens matters, and where young players learn to see the game, shape the game, and leave their mark.

Questions

FAQ

Is it really free?

Yes. The tournament is completely free to enter and compete in. Your only cost is your nation's jersey if you qualify for the Finals tournament.

Who can try out?

Any player in the eligible birth windows — born August 2013 – December 2014, or born August 2016 – December 2017 — from any club. You do not need to be an EvoToca FC player.

What if I can't get the exact jersey?

A jersey with the correct nation and correct primary color is required to play — for example, Brazil must be a yellow Brazil jersey. Any era is fine. No correct jersey means you cannot participate.

Where does it all happen?

Celebration Park, Allen, TX — both age groups, all dates. Location is subject to change but will remain in the Allen/McKinney area.
