Med City FC, winner of the National Premier Soccer League’s north conference in 2022, is proud to announce that the club has been selected to participate in the inaugural Minnesota Super Cup, a new tournament created to bring together the top Minnesota clubs competing in the “Division 4” national leagues into a single competition.
“The Minnesota Super Cup fills a gap for clubs and fans” said tournament director Jon Martinson. “For clubs, they get meaningful games against top competition with reasonable travel. For fans, they get to see cross-league competition that will rekindle rivalries, create new ones, and help answer the question they are asking: which team is the best in Minnesota?”
Six Minnesota-based clubs were selected from the “Division 4” national pre-professional and semipro leagues, including USL League Two, the National Premier Soccer League, and the United Premier Soccer League, based on their results from previous seasons.
The clubs will compete in a World Cup-style tournament that will be held in the summer, concurrent with the national amateur leagues’ seasons.
“We’re excited to be participating in the inaugural edition of the new Minnesota Super Cup,” said Med City FC general manager/co-owner Frank Spaeth. “All the clubs involved have been making meaningful contributions to soccer in the state for the past several years, and it’s great to be selected to participate in the tournament based on the work that we’ve been doing on and off the field since our inaugural 2017 season.”
The full field of teams and the competition schedule will be unveiled in the coming weeks on mnsupercup.com and on twitter.com/mnsupercup
