The start of the U.S. Open Cup is just weeks away, and the tournament process truly began on Wednesday with the unveiling of the first and second round matchups.

On Wednesday, U.S. Soccer unveiled the pairing and hosting scenarios for the first two rounds of the U.S. Open Cup, which kicks off on May 9 when Red Force FC takes on the South Florida Surf. The first round is set to feature 28 total matches that include 21 Premier Development League (PDL) teams, 18 National Premier Soccer League (NPSL) sides, and 17 Open Division local qualifiers.

The second round is set to kick off on May 16-17, featuring the introduction of six NASL teams and 18 USL clubs.

U.S. Soccer also determined a list of teams that are not permitted to be matched up throughout the tournament unless in the final due to affiliation rules. Those clubs include the Jacksonville Armada (NASL) and Jacksonville Armada U-23 (NPSL); OKC Energy (USL) and OKC Energy U23 (PDL); San Jose Earthquakes (MLS) and Reno 1868 FC (USL); Seattle Sounders FC (MLS) and Sounders FC U-23. Teams that are majority-owned or controlled by higher-division clubs are excluded from the competition.
