ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The IPL All Stars program was developed to foster healthy competition among players, clubs, and families while providing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to compete in the USA Cup in Minnesota this July. This is your chance to showcase your talent and be part of an elite team!
Program Highlights:
Eligibility: Open to all IPL players born in 2008, 2009, and 2010
Registration Fee: $50
What’s Included:
All registered players must pick up their IPL All Stars Training Top at Tursi’s Soccer (2100 E Fairview Ave #8, Meridian, ID). Optional shorts and socks are available for purchase and are required for USA Cup participants.
Team Selection: Following the February 1 training session, the IPL All Stars staff will select between 6 and 15 players (based on coach preference) for the event. In addition, the IPL All Stars coaches for each team will be named. Please note that selected players will be designated as alternates until the final rosters are confirmed. Coaches may then offer players a travel spot. Each team will consist of 16-18 travel players and up to 7 alternates.
Additionally, an open tryout will be held, with scouting opportunities and invitations extended through IPL matches. Players who attended the first tryout will receive a reduced-cost promo code for registration for the second tryout if you choose.

The IPL’s mission is to elevate the soccer experience in Idaho. For top players, competing in the IPL offers the opportunity to showcase their skills in an environment that demands high-level performance, often leading to competition outside the state. We’re committed to providing players with the best possible experience, including training with skilled teammates, competing under pressure, and playing in what is considered “the largest youth soccer tournament in North America.”

Each team will travel with a head coach, assistant coach, and at least one parent chaperone. Players will stay in dorms alongside other teams from around the country and the world. Parents are welcome to attend the event if their child is selected.

We are committed to keeping costs as low as possible. Through our partnership with Tursis Soccer, we’re able to offer affordable training tops and free uniforms for the final roster.

Our goal is to ensure that the cost for selected players remains as affordable as possible.
