The Framingham United Soccer Club is proud to host the annual Memorial Day Sportsmanship Classic. The Memorial Day Sportsmanship Classic is a competitive tournament held each year for many teams who come from all over New England and New York. The name of the tournament includes "Sportsmanship" as we are dedicated and strive to showcase top quality play with a strong emphasis on being good sports. An award is given to one team in each division of every level of play who displays the best attitude and sportsmanship during the tournament.

Our experienced and well-organized tournament committee also is regularly complimented by those who play in the tournament each year. The committee and our volunteers are dedicated to making your club’s participation here an enjoyment for all. In 2010, we provided quality, competitive play for 140 teams. Come experience our tournament as we welcome back many of our returning participants! We look forward to seeing you.

Our tournament has a hotel coordinator who holds blocks of discounted hotel rooms for our tournament teams. For further information, please contact Stephen Smoller at ssmoller@yahoo.com. Framingham, MA is easy to get to with 2 exits on the Massachusetts Turnpike.
