BOCA RATON, FL - Florida Atlantic University will host the fourth annual 5v5 Soccer Fest April 9-10 on FAU's Boca Raton campus. The highly successful event saw a record 190 teams from Palm Beach, Broward, Miami-Dade, and Martin Counties participate last spring. Participation in this year's tournament is expected to surpass that total, as the event has sold out in each of the past three years.

Just as last year, the event will split the competitions into different days. Men's and boys will play Saturday, April 9, while the women's and girls divisions will play Sunday, April 10. Each division is comprised of under-8 to under-18 age groups as well as an open division.

The two-day tournament benefits the FAU men's and women's soccer programs. Games begin at 9 am both days, and there is no charge for admission. Those interested in entering the competition can call 561-297-3711 (boys) or 561-297-3743 (girls), or access on-line registration forms at www.fausports.com on the men's and women's soccer frontpages.
