UPDATE - May 24 - 3:30 p.m. ET - Due to the persistent rainfall in the LaGrangeville area over the past week, which is forecasted to continue through tomorrow, and the resulting flooding of fields, all games previously scheduled for Saturday, May 25, at the National Cup XII Northeast Regional in LaGrangeville, N.Y., are being postponed.
This decision was made due to player safety concerns resulting from the deteriorating field conditions.
US Club Soccer staff members are currently working on a revised schedule which will consolidate the Regional competition over two days (Sunday and Monday). This will result in games potentially extending later into Monday afternoon than previously planned and may also include shortening some games.
Please check back for an updated schedule by 9 p.m. ET tonight. The schedule will be available on usclubsoccer.org. Please also continue to check back for further updates throughout the weekend.
Registration, which was previously scheduled for this evening, will instead take place on Sunday 60 minutes prior to each team’s first game at the US Club Soccer tent at the fields.
We thank you for your patience and understanding.

It takes a special venue to host the NPL Champions Cup.
From July 18-22, champions of each of the 17 National Premier Leagues will converge on one location for five days of competition to determine national champions.
What's more, the event is held alongside the National Cup XII Finals, meaning more than 200 top teams from across the country will need room to play and prepare.
That's where Aurora Sports Park comes in. The facility in suburban Denver will serve as the host for the 2013 NPL Champions Cup and National Cup XII Finals, and it is no stranger to big events, having held the Elite Clubs National League (ECNL) National Championships in 2011.
