Goal

The NYC Consulate Cup is a unique community-based soccer tournament that brings the international diplomatic community in NY together and helps connect them to support our mission to make soccer more accessible in NYC’s most underserved communities.

In 2023, all proceeds raised from team registrations, auctions, and sponsors went directly to City in the Community, the 501 (c)(3) charity foundation proudly supported by New York City FC. Registrations, auctions, and sponsors went directly to help grow the Community Cup launched last year.

Consulate Cup 2024

Flushing Meadows Corona Park | Saturday, September 28th

Background

Organized by a committee made up of representatives from New York City FC, the Consulate General of the United Arab Emirates in New York, the African Advisory Council of the Bronx, the Consulate General of Switzerland in New York, the Mayor’s Fund to Advance New York and the Consulate General of Mexico in New York, the Consulate Cup saw the light for the first time in 2022.

With the aim to unite the diplomatic community in favor of the city’s children and to promote the virtues of the beautiful game ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup in the US, Mexico and Canada, it has since become an annual event.
