2006 Carolina Challenge Cup

The USL's Charleston Battery will host their third Carolina Challenge Cup next March 18-25. The preseason tournament will feature the Battery along with MLS's DC United, San Jose Earthquakes and MetroStars.

This is a fun warm-up event that allows South Carolina to witness some good soccer as well as boost the notoriety of the Battery ahead of their season. It's also good to see the two biggest soccer leagues in the states working together. These are the things that help grow the sport.
