GREENSBORO, N.C. (June 26, 2017) – Five North Texas Soccer teams advanced to the US Youth Soccer Region III Championship semifinals after the first day of quarterfinals. North Texas had seven teams play on the first day of quarterfinals, and nine more will look to secure a semifinals spot tomorrow. Teams in the Under-13 through Under-19/20 boys and girls age groups competed at Bryan Park Soccer Complex in Greensboro, N.C. from June 23-29, 2017.

US Youth Soccer Southern Regional Premier League (SRPL) West winners in the Under-13 and Under-14 Boys and Girls age groups along with champions and runner-ups in the Under-15 through Under-19/20 Boys and Girls age groups joined State Cup Champions and select wildcards at the Region III Championships. Regional winners will then represent Region III at the 2017 US Youth Soccer National Championships held at Toyota Soccer Center in Frisco Texas on July 25-29.

The North Texas Soccer State Cup is the first step in the US Youth Soccer National Championships Series. Boys and girls teams in multiple age groups earn their way by competing against the top teams in their state and region.

The champions in the 13U through 19/20U age groups from each regional event will converge in the finals with the National League teams.
