XF Challenge 

The Crossfire Challenge has become the premier youth tournament in the Pacific Northwest, with teams coming from throughout the United States and Canada.  In previous years, teams from California South, California North, Oregon, Canada, Utah, Colorado, Hawaii, Nevada, Idaho, Alaska, Montana, Washington, Texas and beyond have attended. The 2023 Crossfire Challenge welcomed nearly 630 teams from throughout the United States and Canada.  We look forward to seeing you at the 2024 tournament! 

Scouting Zone

As part of The Crossfire Challenge experience, we are excited to continue our relationship with SCOUTINGZONE, a mobile scouting app that will enhance recruiting efforts at our showcase. SCOUTINGZONE provides a mobile database of player profiles where both scouts and players will maximize their opportunities to find the perfect match. It is imperative that all scouts (College, ODP, Professional, & US Soccer) have accurate team & player information. This is an elite service that we are providing (for free) to you!

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOUR TEAM?  •  Increase players’ opportunity to be recruited (by College, Professional, ODP & US Soccer scouts)  •  Scouts have real-time access to players’ information on their mobile device  •  Rosters/Player Profiles are linked to our showcase schedule: Scouts customize their own schedule to watch specific players & teams  •  Ensure players fill out their TOP 10: College scouts will receive a list of players in our showcase that are interested in their college program    •  FREE for all teams & players!

The U11 to U19 teams should be prepared to play on Friday. The first games on Friday will begin at 8 a.m.   The U8-U10 teams will start play on Thursday afternoon.   If a team is driving from more than 3 hours away we will do our best to schedule them to start no sooner than 11 a.m. The last game on Monday will kick off no later than 4 p.m. Teams making flight arrangements need to be prepared to play in the 4 p.m. game just in case.

Coaching Conflicts

We do our best to avoid coaches having conflicts during round-robin play.  In order to avoid coaching conflicts it is important that you enter the coaches email the same on each application for that coach.  If there is a coaching change after the team application is submitted, please add the new coach including their email, and remove the old coach. It is important this is done by the tournament deadline.
