Game Locations
For the 2027 Memorial Day Boston International Cup, facilities will continue to be grouped geographically by age group and gender to simplify scheduling and improve the experience for traveling teams and families.
Boys divisions are primarily grouped across the South Shore, Greater Boston, and North Shore areas: U8 Boys at Curry College; U9–U12 Boys around Union Point / East Bridgewater; U13–U14 Boys in the Weymouth / Braintree / Boston area; U15–U16 Boys in the Greater Boston northwest cluster; and U17–U19 Boys in Lynnfield.
Girls divisions are grouped separately, with U9–U10 Girls in Hopkinton, U11–U12 Girls in Northborough, U13–U14 Girls in Hopkinton, and U15–U19 Girls in the Medway / Mendon area.
As we continue to grow the event, we are actively working to add additional facilities even closer to downtown Boston and the city core. Because our venues are spread across multiple high-quality facility hubs, we generally recommend that out-of-state boys and girls teams book hotels in centrally located areas such as Cambridge, South Boston, Waltham, or Natick. These locations typically provide the best balance between all venue clusters, helping reduce overall travel times throughout the weekend while also giving families easier access to Boston restaurants, attractions, and airport connections.
