WELCOME TO WHERE2PLAY: SOCCER & LACROSSE
In 1994, the FIFA World Cup helped change the trajectory of soccer in the United States. Participation grew, professional leagues followed and communities began investing in the fields, facilities and organizations needed to support the sport’s rapid expansion. As the 2026 edition wraps up, the conversation feels different. Soccer no longer needs to prove it belongs—it didn’t even before the tournament took place. Major League Soccer has grown to 30 franchises. Professional and preprofessional leagues span the country. Youth participation remains strong, and nearly every region has invested in the infrastructure required to host training, league and tournament play.
The question now is where the next phase of growth comes from.
Interestingly for the U.S., that question extends beyond soccer. Lacrosse will return to the Olympic stage at LA28 through the debut of Sixes, a fasterpaced format designed to showcase the sport to a global audience. Rugby has followed a similar path with Sevens, and the sport’s next major opportunity is already on the horizon as the U.S. prepares to host the 2031 Men’s Rugby World Cup in and the 2033 Women’s
Rugby World Cup. If 1994 demonstrated what a global event can do for soccer in America, the coming decade will offer a chance to see what those same forces can mean for lacrosse and rugby.
For communities investing in sports tourism, their fields that host soccer tournaments today may welcome more lacrosse championships tomorrow and rugby competitions the following weekend. Across the country, versatile multipurpose complexes have become some of the most valuable assets in the event landscape, capable of attracting visitors, generating economic impact and adapting to the evolving needs of multiple sports.
This edition of Where2Play highlights the destinations and facilities positioned for that future. Discover the venues built to support a growing range of field sports, along with the resources needed to identify the right fit for your next event.
The spotlight may move from one sport to another, but the fields remain at the center of it all.
Happy planning!

Is the US Ready for Another World Cup Boom?
THE BEAUTIFUL GAME IS GROWING IN THE UNITED STATES AS ORGANIZERS SEEK WAYS TO MAINTAIN PARTICIPATION LEVELS PAST PRE-TEEN YEARS
BY MATT SWENSON
Michael Lazar, senior vice president for strategy at U.S. Soccer, fell in love with the beautiful game in 1994 watching a World Cup match at Soldier Field in Chicago. It’s a common story for a generation of soccer fanatics who’ve seen the sport firmly implant itself into the American mainstream.
This summer’s sequel isn’t likely to have the same impact. How could it? Major League Soccer and the National Women’s Soccer League are direct outgrowths from FIFA placing its grandest event in the land of opportunity. The U.S. Women’s National Soccer team has won three world championships in that span, only adding to the fan and participation base.
Yet a World Cup boom is already underway amid a far different landscape. It’s considered a given within all levels of soccer organizations that participation will grow dramatically over the next year or two. In the 1990s, achieving an increased foothold in this country was the goal. This time around, U.S. Soccer, franchises, clubs, travel teams and recreational entities are far more focused on retention as soccer has a chance to take the next step in the country.
“We need to put the player at the center of all the decisions we make,” says Lazar.
RECREATION VS TRAVEL
The number of Americans playing soccer is at an all-time high. In 2025, there were 16.7 million participants ages 6 and up playing outdoor soccer and 6.6 million active in indoor

versions like futsal, according to the Sports and Fitness Industry Association. The statistics reveal a 2.2 million surge in the past year as the buildup for the World Cup has intensified.
Sustaining that momentum may require reconsidering the sport’s structural integrity across the U.S. There are thousands of soccer teams in the country with a variety of levels. For new players and parents, finding the right fit can be challenging.
“The ecosystem is fragmented,” Lazar acknowledges.
How that’s playing out is that too many young athletes are leaving recreation leagues to play travel soccer, says Matt Libber, executive director of the Maryland SoccerPlex in Montgomery County, Maryland.
A former event organizer, Libber has seen a shift from club teams attracting primarily elite athletes to accepting lesser-skilled players with little hope of earning a college scholarship, let alone becoming a professional. While travel sports offer a different and often positive experience, Libber says parents should “look at the math” before making the financial and time commitment.
“They’re basically paying to play rec soccer in another state,” Libber says. “If you are on the third or fourth level club team, you should be playing rec.”
John Guidroz, founder of Snap Soccer, a Southern-based tournament and events company serving 60,000 athletes at tournaments, says travel soccer’s success is the result of longterm infrastructure investment, strategic partnerships and experiencefocused event management. Snap’s tournaments sparked interest in parts of the country lagging behind the sport’s surge, he says. Guidroz prefers to avoid delineating between club and rec athletes and focus on encouraging participation.
“You really have 1,500 kids playing soccer in your community,” he says, as an example.
WHERE IS YOUTH SOCCER HEADED?
Parents paying thousands of dollars annually for their kids to play soccer helps fuel the country’s sports tourism industry, which SportsETA reports generates $274.5 billion total economic impact, supports 1.6 million jobs and produces $20.5 billion in state and local
tax revenue nationwide.
For example: Foley Sports Tourism Complex in Alabama, where Snap has held tournaments since the facility’s opening in 2016, hosted 85 events in 2025, drawing 253,177 visitors to the city. The city estimates earning $44.5 million in business sales and generating $2.5 million in local tax revenue from the sports tourism facility.
Don Staley, the complex’s initial executive director and former head soccer coach at Radford University and the University of Alabama, predicts more than the 11 U.S. destinations hosting World Cup matches will benefit from the summer megaevent.
“There will be more tournaments created because of this boom,” says Staley, who is now president and CEO of Southeastern Network of Athletic Professionals, a sports tourism consulting firm.
U.S. Soccer and US Club Soccer have reservations about the accelerated growth of travel soccer. The increased interest in the sport presents opportunities to right size development so that players can have the best experience possible and stick with

the sport longer, says Tyler Heffernan, vice president of marketing and communications at US Club Soccer.
Both national governing bodies are pushing to reduce the number of travel tournaments for young athletes. The high costs create economic disparities in a sport that traditionally requires a ball, field and two goals to play.
“Far too often, teams travel past good, neighboring opponents because those teams are affiliated with different organizations or leagues,” Heffernan says.
Burnout is another concern, with 10–13-year-olds, particularly girls, among the most likely to quit soccer for another activity, says Lazar. Libber notes recreation leagues in Maryland have adopted a 7v7 format instead of a standard 11v11 for U14 soccer to compensate for the low numbers.
National 1 League is how U.S. Soccer and US Club Soccer aim to address the concerns. Beginning next season, US Club Soccer’s National Premier Leagues and the USYS National League will consolidate competitions and create a uniform experience while minimizing school and family disruptions.
Other factors requiring attention are recruiting top-level coaches and referees and finding more playing space, adds Heffernan. As part of its outreach. U.S. Soccer is working with a community in North Texas to manage a facility, according to Lazar.
“Putting fun back into a lot of what we do is really important,” he says of the management philosophy.
Guidroz says small adjustments like starting games at 8:30 a.m. instead of 8 a.m. are how organizers can demonstrate they place families’ experience over recruiting as many teams as possible to a tournament.
“We truly owe our time and our respect to the people who are coming to participate in our events,” Guidroz says.
Heffernan notes that scrutiny over costs and commitment should keep planners on guard to provide the best product possible.
“That doesn’t mean travel to tournaments and events is going away—far from it. But it does mean that tournament organizers need to prove their value,” Heffernan says.
Girls around 10–13 are among the most likely to quit soccer for another activity due to burnout.

Lacrosse’s Olympic Moment: Expectations for LA28 and Beyond
LA28 OFFERS LACROSSE AN UNPRECEDENTED PLATFORM TO EXPAND ITS REACH, ATTRACT NEW AUDIENCES AND STRENGTHEN ITS GLOBAL FOOTPRINT
BY KRISTEN CERNEY
Lacrosse will break its over century-long hiatus as a contesting Olympic sport in the upcoming 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles (LA28). With its return, fans and players anticipate what the international spotlight means for the future of lacrosse as an official Olympic sport.
The inclusion will occur under the Sixes format–a faster, more compact blend of traditional and field box lacrosse. World Lacrosse created this version in 2018 with the Olympic stage in mind. In order to make it to the Games, the sport needed to be more accessible for athletes of all levels while reducing the cost of event staging.
A Breakdown of the Sixes Format
Characterized as an accelerated form of the sport, the games time out at 45 minutes with six players per team and no specialty positions. This version gained significant traction after its feature in the 2022 World Games, and has now landed itself a spot at LA28.
“This version of the game lowers barriers to entry for youth by requiring fewer players and a smaller field, while also creating a more balanced competitive landscape at the elite level,” said Marc Riccio, CEO of USA Lacrosse. “At the national team level, it’s a fast-paced version of the sport that should engage new audiences.”
Kevin Corrigan, head men’s lacrosse coach at Notre Dame, noted that while many purists in the sport would rather see

“Having [lacrosse] be an Olympic sport is going to unlock a lot of resources around the world for the game to expand .”
– Kevin Corrigan Notre Dame Men’s Lacrosse Head Coach
the traditional field version featured, they still view the compromise as worthwhile.
“The game that we play is a better game, more exciting,” said Corrigan. “We weren’t going to get that game into the Olympics.”
The creation of the Sixes format echoes the strategy World Rugby adopted with their Sevens format. In 2009, the International Olympic Committee (IOC) voted rugby into the 2016 and 2020 Olympics. In the years after the vote, rugby doubled in global participation and quintupled in women’s participation. Should lacrosse see the same success, it will have the ability to reach new markets and build competitive national teams without requiring extensive infrastructure or large rosters.
World Lacrosse aspires to see growth in viewership, participation and credibility as an official Olympic sport. Just as rugby gained worldwide recognition as an energizing, competitive sport for all ages and genders, lacrosse has positioned itself for the same success.
How the Olympic Spotlight Reshapes Lacrosse
Gaining a spot at the Olympics will shine a light on lacrosse’s qualification cycle, such as team selection, world championships and the process to qualify to play in the Olympics.
“The Olympics will attract more sponsorships, broadcasting opportunities and potential increased investors,” said Christine Halfpenny, head women’s lacrosse coach at Notre Dame. “We’re already seeing the PLL and WLL utilize the global brand the Olympics delivers to market the sport and the summer playing schedules.”
Building that brand and strengthening the digital media presence is crucial to reach a widespread audience.
International Expansion
Olympic lacrosse’s most significant impact, according to Corrigan, may occur outside the states. Many countries tie their athletic funding to sports featured at the Olympics. This causes a substantial participation blockage to sports, like lacrosse, that haven’t been
featured in decades.
“Having it be an Olympic sport is going to unlock a lot of resources around the world for the game to expand,” said Corrigan.
Halfpenny agrees and emphasizes that more funding options from sponsors and supporters can expand programming for all ages.
“That government funding, sponsorships and youth development programs will add increased support and help the sport grow in nontraditional countries,” said Halfpenny.
Preparing for the International Stage
While much of the preparation efforts are geared towards education and adoption of the Sixes format, measures are being taken to ensure those inspired to join the sport have an easy entryway.
“Equally important is building sustainable community pathways so that new fans inspired by the Olympics have accessible opportunities to participate in the sport locally,” said Riccio.
USA Lacrosse also expanded the sport

to be more accessible for players with physical or developmental disabilities. Some of these formats include wheelchair lacrosse, impairment-specific formats and unified lacrosse where athletes with and without disabilities play alongside one another.
As these organizations make easier pathways towards lacrosse for new participants, established players are putting a pause on their career plans in order to improve their chances of competing at LA28.
“The guys who are going to be in their prime for that Olympic cycle are super excited about it,” said Corrigan. “There’s nothing they could do inside the game that would be more meaningful than playing in the Olympics for the United States.”
LA28 will shape the future of lacrosse for the foreseeable future. Athletes and stakeholders hold firm in the belief that it will stand as a parapet for future expansion nationally and internationally, transcending the beloved sport into a household name.
