The 2025 Lamar Hunt US Open Cup just had its Round of 32 draw and the introduction of 16 Major League Soccer teams to the competition is right around the corner. Meanwhile, at the complete other end of the US Soccer system, another tournament is still in its early stages. The 2025 National Amateur Cup is underway in two regions of the country.
Since 2018, the champion of the National Amateur Cup, the highest tournament in the United States Adult Soccer Association, receives direct qualification to the following year’s US Open Cup. For the last few years, TheCup.us has tracked the National Amateur Cup from its regional stages all the way up until the national final. These updates have been provided on Twitter / X and stats have been kept internally.
USASA is broken into four regions, each holding their own amateur cup tournament respectively. The champions of these four tournaments qualify for the national finals later this summer.
You can find information for every game from this coming weekend below. Additionally, here are links to the articles made over the last month regarding other results:

REGION III (SOUTH)
No information regarding the USASA Region III Amateur Cup has been released at this time.
REGION IV (WEST)
The USASA Region IV Amateur Cup seems to have a new format for 2025.
The region’s website says the tournament will take place in a single location, Salt Lake City, UT, over the course of three days between June 20 – 22, 2025. The deadline to register is Friday, May 23, 2025 and the fee to commit is $400.
In previous years the Region IV tournament has had a chaotic structure. Typically, it’s open admission for any eligible team from the region to participate. However, changing leadership and travel difficulties have made the tournament suffer in recent years with forfeits and hectic structuring.
Last year, the tournament remained open and ten teams signed up. The final four played a single location knockout tournament in Las Vegas, NV where FC Arizona (AZ, NPSL) won.
The description for the 2025 tournament could be a continuation of this. Knockout games could be regionalized until four remain, who will then travel to Utah in late June. Once we know more, we will pass this along.
In the meantime, interested teams from the following state associations, and the National Premier Soccer League, can sign up using the line above:
- Alaska State Soccer Association
- Arizona State Soccer Association
- California Soccer Association – North
- California State Soccer Association – South
- Colorado Soccer Association
- Hawaii Soccer Association
- Idaho State Soccer Association
- Montana State Soccer Association
- Nevada Adult Soccer Association
- New Mexico State Soccer Association
- Oregon Adult Soccer Association
- Utah Soccer Association
- Washington State Adult Soccer Association
- Wyoming Soccer Association
National Amateur Cup Finals
On April 7, Utah Adult Soccer posted a graphic on Instagram claiming that the national finals will be held in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
TheCup.us has confirmed with USASA sources that this is true. The national final four, featuring the regional champions from across the country, will be held at Uihlein Soccer Park in Milwaukee. The 4,000-seat stadium has previously hosted the U.S. Women’s National Team and was the former home of the Milwaukee Rampage (three-time US Open Cup qualifiers).
