PUMA LAB Store - Visit the PUMA LAB Store all week for official Schwan's USA CUP merchandise and other great PUMA products.

PUMA Shoe Demo Program: Want to test out a pair of this year's coolest PUMA kicks? All you need is an ID and you'll be off and running in statement PUMA cleats. Try them out in your game, warm up or at the Soccer Express®-Shirt Kick. See which shoe feels the best and try-on as many as you wish.

PUMA Tent Rentals: Is it 100 degrees out and the new airline luggage laws didn't allow you bring a tent from California? No problem! PUMA is "renting" out pop-up tents for team usage throughout the tournament. Head to the info desk in the PUMA lounge, leave an ID and the tent is yours for the day!

PUMA Transportation: Being the largest sports complex on earth lends to some pretty far walks from field to field. This year PUMA will have 8 golf carts that will circulate around the facility to bring you to your game, carry your equipment or bring you to any of the exciting activities going on during the tournament. There will be stops all over campus so make sure to keep your eye out.

PUMA Passport: Returning from last year's USA CUP is the PUMA Passport - a nifty piece that has you collecting stamps around NSC for a chance to be entered to win signed PUMA gear, soccer cleats, replica apparel and more. The PUMA passport also contains your Scan & Score card for instant win opportunities all day long. Make sure to look in your coaches or players bag for your passport.

Scan & Score: PUMA's instant win game will be located at 3 locations throughout the NSC: The PUMA Lounge, The PUMA World Store and the PUMA White Store. All you have to do is swipe the card from your PUMA Passport and see if you've won. You're card never expires and you can win multiple times. Have some fun and win PUMA prizes.

PUMA Research Center: Want to actually tell the creators of PUMA cleats what you like about them? How they could be better? What colors you want to see? PUMA will be looking for volunteers to participate in some fun focus groups while at the tournament in exchange for some great PUMA gear. Bring the whole team!

Soccer Express®-Shirt Kick: This huge inflatable goal on the National Sports Center grounds offers participants a chance to check the accuracy of their shot and win prizes. For $1, participants get three chances to hit different shirts hanging from a line across the back of the goal. Hit a shirt off the line, and it's yours!
