Park City Soccer Club’s Extreme Cup wraps up

PARK CITY, Utah — The Park City Soccer Club’s (PCSC) annual Extreme Cup, which fills to capacity every year, continues to accommodate the growing demand of teams wishing to participate.

The tournament relies on its successful partnerships with the South Summit Soccer Club in order to increase the number of fields available for play. In this year’s tournament, which occurred last week, wrapped up on Saturday. Matches were played on at least 45 fields at 15 venues in Park City and surrounding areas.

Park City’s fields are widely acknowledged as the best in the State; the U.S. Men’s National Team and ReAL Salt Lake have even trained on some of these same fields. Games outside of Park City were held in Oakley and Francis.

This marked the first year that Park City’s newest fields, Basin Rec’s Trailside East Park, was in use.
