Annual Women’s/Non-Binary, 1-day, 7v7 tournament

Registration is Open Now!

Mission & Purpose

Women and non-binary players often leave organized sport earlier in adulthood than their male counterparts. Fewer leagues, fewer teams & fewer dedicated spaces mean many talented athletes lose access to the women’s game.

The Play With Pride Cup exists to change that.

Our mission is to celebrate, empower, and sustain participation in soccer by creating a space dedicated to serving women/non-binary players—one that is fun, welcoming & community-centered.

By providing dedicated playing opportunities, we help ensure athletes can continue enjoying the game without the barriers that often exist in mixed-gender spaces.
