BUILDING A STRONGER BOSTON THROUGH SPORT

The Boston Unity Cup is a city-wide adult soccer tournament celebrating Boston’s diverse community around a shared passion for sport. 

 

​Hosted in collaboration with local leaders, community organizations, non-profit programs, and the City of Boston Mayor’s Office, the Boston Unity Cup is a testament to the power of partnership and what our city can do when we come together.

The 2024 tournament was held in July & August at Carter Fields on Columbus Ave in Roxbury adjacent to the Northeastern University campus. Check back in the Winter for more information!
