"Each year, the nation\'s top players look forward to the US Youth Soccer National Championship Series as teams earn their way from state to regional champions, striving to be one of the top 60 teams in the country playing for the US Youth Soccer National Championship," said Larry Monaco, president of US Youth Soccer. "It was a tremendous event by host West Virginia Soccer Association and congratulations to the more than 250 teams who advanced to represent their state and to those who will continue their quest to be named US Youth Soccer National Champions."
 
The National Championships cap a yearlong series of competitions, US Youth Soccer National Championship Series, for boys and girls teams in multiple age groups as teams earn their way from the top teams in their state to the regional championship tournaments. US Youth Soccer State Champions and selected wildcard teams are eligible to compete in one of four US Youth Soccer Regional Championships. The champions in the Under-14 through Under-19 age groups from each regional event will converge in the finals in Kansas.
 
The US Youth Soccer National Championships will consist of US Youth Soccer Regional Champions in the Under-14 through Under-19 Boys and Girls age groups as well as the US Youth Soccer National League qualifiers in the Under-15 through Under-17 Boys and Girls age groups to complete the field of 60 teams. 2010 marks the 75th anniversary of the Under-19 Boys James P. McGuire Cup, the oldest trophy in youth sports dating back to 1935 with the inaugural youth championships. The Under-19 Girls National Champion will hoist the Ross Stewart Cup on its 30th anniversary.
