The Nor Pac Sports Network has been officially recognized by U.S. Soccer for its pioneering coverage of the 2025 Washington Super Cup Final, marking a significant milestone for grassroots soccer broadcasting in the Pacific Northwest.
“The final marked the first time the event was broadcast live, streamed by NorPac Sports Network,” said US Soccer’s Mel Radke.

Held on July 20 in Mount Vernon, the sixth annual Super Cup—organized by the Washington State Adult Soccer Association (WSASA)—featured an exciting showdown between FC International (Olympia) and Rat City FC (White Center). FC International ultimately lifted the trophy with a 5-2 win in front of a spirited crowd. But for the first time in tournament history, fans across the state and beyond were able to tune in live thanks to a full broadcast produced by Nor Pac Sports Network.
The match stream featured WSASA President and U.S. Soccer Adult Commissioner Tim Busch on color commentary, lending national credibility and a deeper perspective to the broadcast. His presence also signified a strong commitment from U.S. Soccer to spotlight regional soccer initiatives and elevate the visibility of elite amateur competitions.
The Super Cup is one of Washington’s premier adult men’s tournaments, open to all clubs regardless of league affiliation. This year’s edition drew sixteen teams representing the Evergreen Premier League (EPLWA), the UPSL, and several independent sides. The diversity of participants underscores the tournament’s reputation as a proving ground for some of the top amateur talent in the Pacific Northwest.
In addition to raising the bar on production quality and storytelling, the broadcast also helped generate support for the local soccer community. Proceeds from the final benefited Skagit Premier Youth Soccer League, directly contributing to youth player development in the region.
The recognition from U.S. Soccer comes as Nor Pac continues to expand its coverage of the adult soccer landscape across Washington and the broader Pacific Northwest. Their work in elevating regional competitions like the Super Cup demonstrates how local broadcasts can make a national impact—on the field, in the community, and in the broader soccer ecosystem.
