The tournament is also now a proud supporter of the Wounded Warrior Project (WWP). For every team that applies to the tournament, the Virginian will donate $10 to WWP. The goal is to raise at least $6,000 for this worthy cause.

Other changes include a new three-game format, each team receiving an official tournament game ball, and teams now being allowed up to five guest players. Ongoing Virginian traditions include the four levels of play, high quality fields, trophies and championship shirts and athletic trainers at most of the sites.

This tournament has a reputation for being one of the most professionally run youth soccer events in the country and offers teams a chance to enjoy a great soccer experience just minutes from the Nation's Capital.
