The high school soccer season is just around the corner, and several area squads are planning to gear up with some short-sided games at the second annual Eagle Cup 6v6 Soccer Tournament at Beaufort Academy on Saturday, Feb. 28.
Beaufort Academy is once again welcoming varsity boys and girls teams from across the Lowcountry for a full day of fast-paced, high-quality soccer. Now in its second year, the Eagle Cup has tripled in size, featuring eight varsity boys teams and four varsity girls teams, reflecting the tournament’s growing reputation as a premier preseason and showcase event for the region’s top programs. The 6v6 format emphasizes speed, skill, and creativity — delivering nonstop action for players and spectators alike.
Matches will be played throughout the day on the Beaufort Academy campus, with concessions and local food trucks on site, creating a family-friendly atmosphere for fans, students, and the broader community.
“The Eagle Cup was created to celebrate the game and bring together the best soccer programs in the Lowcountry,” tournament organizer Ian Leslie said. “With the tournament’s growth this year, we’re excited to offer an even better experience for athletes and spectators.”
Spectators are encouraged to attend and enjoy a day of competitive soccer, community, and school spirit.
