The Louisiana Open Cup is a single-weekend tournament designed for all Recreational teams, non-LCSL Classic teams, non-LSAP Academy teams, and all 13U-19U LCSL teams in Division 3 or below.
Seeding is based upon the requests of each team, as well as results in the LCSL if applicable. Teams can opt to play in the Gold, Blue or Red Division. The goal is to permit teams to compete at a high level while still finding competitive parity between teams. For example, Recreational teams will be able to compete for the first time against teams that participated in the LCSL if they choose.

Hotels and Accommodations
The Louisiana Open Cup, like all Louisiana Soccer State Tournaments, is a "Stay to Play" tournament. This means all teams participating in "The Open" that are traveling from beyond a 100 mile radius of the tournament site must book their accommodations through Anthony Travel. This was done to give our teams and soccer families the best available hotel benefits possible and to ensure all teams receive the protections LSA and Anthony Travel can negotiate with hotels.
