Round Rock to Host National Soccer Tournament
The city of Round Rock has been selected to host the USSSA's national championship soccer tournament in December.
Games in the youth, adult, and seven-on-seven divisions will be played at Old Settler's Park on December 4-6. Registration begins May 1 and qualifying teams will be contacted in the coming days.
Tournament organizers said Round Rock's central location helped them make the decision to move the tournament there from its previous location of Las Vegas.
"We believe by centrally locating the tournament we are able to include more teams this year," said Craig Scriven, the national director of soccer for the United States Specialty Sports Association (USSSA). "Round Rock is a great location and has all the aspects that we look for when holding a tournament of this size."
