Indiana Memorial Cup
Honoring players, coaches, administrators, and referees whom we have lost from the game much too soon.
About The Indiana Memorial Cup
If you or anyone you know has information on Indiana Soccer players or referees who have left us too soon, (youth or adult), we would love to be able to honor them and their families in 2024.
The Inspiration
The Indiana Memorial Cup was inspired by the loss of Rachael Fiege in 2013. Rick and Angela Fiege asked that the event be expanded to honor all of Indiana’s soccer players, administrators, and referees who are no longer with us.
The Purpose
As a result, Indiana Soccer is honored to provide the Indiana Memorial Cup to pay tribute to those players, coaches and referees whom we have lost much too soon.
Cup Proceeds
The proceeds from the Indiana Memorial Cup are used to support outreach programming in the state of Indiana.
Eligibility
The event is open to any USYS travel or rec+ team ages 7U to 12U. The event hosts separate divisions for the boys and girls teams.

General Information
Players may roster on more than one team with the approval of the Tournament Director prior team registration. The purpose of this rule amendment is to allow for clubs to bring a maximum number of their teams with the understanding some teams may have limited rosters for a variety of reasons this time of year. Teams can not move players from one team to another during the tournament for the sole purpose of “winning” games.
Each registered player will receive a Memorial Cup gift as their participation award.
All teams will be scheduled for a minimum of three games.
Teams may be required to play a Friday night game.
No official standings/results will be posted for any age division.
Playing rules are the same as ISL with one exception, U11/U12 games will be 25 Min halves instead of 30 Min. RULES HERE
