ONE DAY PER SPORT EVENT | SOCCER & E-SOCCER

FOR THE LOVE OF FOOTBALL

Taking inspiration from the domestic cup competition format in England, we are creating a new domestic cup tradition within the United States, looking to grow the sport within the country. England has a domestic trophies exclusively open to lower divisions, one being the FA Trophy open to Divisions 5-8, where Wrexham AFC made it to the final in 2022.

The Open Cup is a beautiful and historic tradition, and its great to make a deep run and that is a success story in its self as is in England in the FA Cup for the smaller clubs. Yet, wheres the opportunity for Amateur and Semi-Pro Clubs to consistently fight for the glory of lifting trophies and being crowned champions within a domestic cup. That is the gap we’re looking to passionately fill.

Become part of history and bring domestic cup glory to your club.

FOR THE CLUBS

Funding. With a low entry fee, you do not have to make a big initial expense, with a huge opportunity to make money for your club not only through the prize amount but also through the gained glory and attention that comes from success within the cup. Use this and opportunity for sponsorship, investors, sales, viewership etc. Free entry to this edition is also available to those who sign with Garra Sports as their club kit provider (Contact for details).

Matches, Matches, Matches. Exposure. We want to provide more matches for the clubs. Within the amateur and semi-pro level system we will play much less than what many clubs within the European system clubs will. Given the amount of competition they play in, European competitions, multiple domestic cups, league, promotion playoffs, etc.

Opportunity. Players within your club moving to a higher level can bring you much positive attention and even direct transfer money. Or even the opportunity for your club to move to higher levels through the exposure and attention of the cup.

Scheduling. Given the fact that our matches are midweek, we avoid taking away from your weekend fixtures and will accommodate around open cup and other scheduling complications as best as possible. Adding to your match calendar and not taking away from it.

Location. We keep the cup local to avoid the hassle of traveling extremely far distances on a week day, lowering expense and maximizing availability. This edition will be a neutral site to keep hassle to a minimum for everyone and therefore opening up availability to teams outside the Metro-Atlanta area as long as their able to make the drive.

FOR THE EXPIERENCE

Many players and/or clubs have yet to expierence multiple expierences within soccer, were looking to fill that void. With players watching top clubs and players playing home and away series, two-legged ties with aggergate score etc. now they can live it. This is a big goal

FOR THE PLAYERS

Age and Development. One day we all become to old to play football. Think about how many matches Foden will have played for Man City and England so far in his 24 years of age… 400 Matches since 2016. That’s averaging 50 matches per year. How many high level Amateur and Semi-Pro matches do you think each player in the U.S. is averaging at this age? Not enough. The place where you develop most is high level organized matches and we do not get enough of it and wonder why we cant keep up. These players are playing in in a multitude of competitions with their club and countries within a calendar year, European competitions, domestic cups, league, international cups and qualifications. We want to add one to yours to close that gap. Aside from that one day when we are too old to play we will look back, and you will wish you had played as many matches and lifted as many trophies as possible. This is your opportunity to do so, while not taking away from your weekend matches but adding matches to your week.

Exposure. We want to provide a spotlight for players to play against the best of the best of their level and get seen by professional clubs for the opportunity to chase their dreams of professional contracts. Win and get more and more eyes from those at higher levels. We will work hard to provide as much attention to you as possible.
