Boston International Cup (Memorial Day)
Overview
Major Memorial Day weekend youth soccer tournament in Greater Boston. Co-operated by Boston Bolts and New England Surf SC (relaunched 2025 from TapIn Memorial Day format). Inaugural 2025: 604 teams. Expected 2026: 800+ teams. 24+ venues across Greater Boston.
Formerly known as “TapIn Memorial Day” tournament. Rebranded to “Boston International Cup” with PSS/International Cup Series partnership for 2026.
Ownership & Operations
Joint venture: Boston Bolts + New England Surf SC + PSS/International Cup Series (2026 onward). Largest Memorial Day tournament in New England.
Economics
800+ teams estimated 2026 × typical $400-500/team entry = $320K-400K gross entry revenue. Hotel block and STP economics likely significant at this scale. Full P&L not public.
Investment Thesis
Tournament asset associated with Boston Bolts and New England Surf. In a Boston Bolts acquisition, tournament IP and operations would be a key revenue line to diligence.
