General Showcase Information

High School Game Format

The High School Showcase is the primary event of the National Soccer Showcase and features teams playing either a five-game or seven-game format over two or three days. Teams are grouped with similarly sized or similarly competitive schools to ensure the series of games is as evenly balanced as possible. With three options to choose from for scheduling, we offer flexibility for schools of all sizes and levels.

Middle School Game Format

One factor that marks a quality community-based program is the development of a seamless transition from travel and middle school programs to high school programs. To help achieve that goal, we offer U13-14 travel teams and middle school age teams the opportunity to participate in the National Soccer Showcase, giving players a taste of play at the high school level.
