VCCL
Virginia Club Champions League
Dallas Cup:
Each year the VCCL Board of Directors names a boys' and girls' U-14 select team from its member clubs. The first Champions League Select U-14 boys' team was named to represent VCCL in the 1998 Dallas Cup. The 2008 tournament marks the eleventh year our boys' league-select team has been accepted to the Dallas Cup.
Dallas Cup XXIX (March 16 - March 23, 2008) offers the most competitive international youth soccer in North America plus genuine Texas hospitality. The Dallas Cup is by invitation only and teams are selected for invitation based on their competitive performance as shown on the on-line application which is normally available in late summer for the following years tournament. All performance information is verified through the Dallas Cup's world wide network. In past years, teams and referees have traveled to Dallas from ninety-eight countries and six continents.
Format
In the opening round robin, teams are bracketed into groups of four and are guaranteed a minimum of three games. Group winners and/or wildcards advance to the elimination stage of the tournament. "Friendly Games" will be organized in the latter part of the week for those teams that do not advance to the elimination stage giving teams the opportunity to play five matches (weather permitting) while in Dallas. All games are played on grass fields in the Dallas area, all within easy driving distance of the Dallas Cup designated hotels. The Opening Ceremonies, Super Group feature games, and all finals will be held at Pizza Hut Park Stadium. Trophies and medals are awarded to all finalists and souvenirs to all competitors. The Dallas Cup is sanctioned by North Texas Soccer, the United States Soccer Federation and FIFA. The Texas Longhorns Soccer Club is the host club for the Dallas Cup.
