22nd Annual Spirit Kick-Off Classic
This soccer tournament is the largest in Pennsylvania. It
attracts teams from throughout the Northeast. Last year over
350 high caliber teams participated, with teams coming from
as far south as North Carolina, as far west as Ohio, as far
north as Massachusetts, and all points in between! We hope
your team is one this year. The tournament, for girls and
boys U-9 through U-16, occurs over two weekends in August.
Boys Weekend: August 16–17, 2008 [including
U-15 and U-16 Girls teams]
Girls Weekend: August 23–24, 2008
Application deadline is June 16, 2008.
The two weekend format gives each team competitive games
and a good work out in preparation for the fall travel season.
The outstanding play and sportsmanship that characterize outstanding
soccer will provide plenty of enjoyment for players and fans
alike. The Spirit United Soccer Club, one of the premier clubs
in Pennsylvania and the U.S., and the Spirit Kick-Off Classic
continue their rich tradition of promoting soccer excellence
and sportsmanship.
Join us at a tournament we are confident your team
will enjoy and in which it will be proud to have been a participant!
The Spirit United Soccer Club is located in the heart of
Chester County, Pennsylvania. All games will be played on
our complex of over 50 fields located in the Downingtown,
PA area, which is easily accessed by the PA Turnpike, U.S.
Route 202, and I-95. Many historical sites (Valley
Forge, Independence
Hall), cultural attractions (Longwood
Gardens, PA
Dutch Country) and entertainment venues (Hershey

We hope you and your team accept our invitation to participate
in the Spirit Kick-Off Classic for great competition, good
sportsmanship and lots of fun! We are sure you will be glad
you did.
