About the Conference
The US Youth Soccer Sunshine Conference consists of teams primarily from Florida.
The Sunshine Conference operates league play for boys and girls teams in the 13U, 14U, 15U, 16U, 17U and 19U age groups. There is also an 18U age group for the boys (team vs. team).
Boys and girls teams in the all age groups play their games primarily from September to May across a single league schedule. For more details, check the team information section higher up on this page.
- The highest level of play for each age group takes place within a Premier I Division (team vs. team).
- The Club vs. Club divisions on the boys’ side provide an equivalent level of play to the Premier I Divisions.
The Sunshine Conference is one of 13 Conferences within the National League that offer team-based competition, meaning each team earns its place into the appropriate level of play through its play on the field. The 13 Conferences share national connectivity via the Conference Playoffs, which provide a platform for the top 10 percent of teams from the 3,500+ teams playing in the conferences to come together and compete for an opportunity to continue on the pathway toward the US Youth Soccer National Championships.
The conferences provide teams with two pathways that help teams work their way toward advancing to the USYS National Championships.
- National League Pathway – Conference teams can advance to the National Championships as one of the National League’s representatives. In order to do so, they must:
- Qualify for the Conference Playoffs by finishing as one of the top teams in the highest level of its conference in the previous seasonal year.
- Compete at the Conference Playoffs and earn advancement to National League P.R.O.
- Compete at National League P.R.O. and finish in a qualifying position for the USYS National Championships.
- Regional Championships Pathway – Conference teams can advance to the National Championships as a Regional Championship representative. In order to do so, they must:
- Finish as one of the top teams in the highest level of its conference to earn a spot in the Regional Championships at the end of that same seasonal year.
- Win the Regional Championship to advance to the USYS National Championships.
