Spirit Kickoff Classic General Information

History
The first Spirit United Kick-Off Classic took place in 1986 under the direction of the Spirit United Soccer Club of Downingtown, PA. The tournament was begun to promote excellence in soccer and sportsmanship and to provide youth soccer players with an opportunity to compete against other high caliber teams from throughout the northeastern United States. The first tournament had 34 teams and 510 players participating, primarily from the Chester County, PA area.

From this meager beginning, the tournament has grown in numbers and stature. In 2020, the tournament attracted more than 400 teams, more than 5,000 players, and more than 50,000 soccer fans. It is ranked as a Premier-level tournament (both boys and girls) by GOTsoccer.com (www.gotsoccer.com).
