The USASA National Select Teams Championships is also known as the George F. Donnelly Cup. Annually, National State Associations and State Association Leagues are invited to participate at the George F. Donnelly Cup. As part of the USASA Elite Player Program, in addition to teams playing for a National Championship in a tournament format, players are scouted throughout the tournament by the USASA National Coaching Staff for recommendation to the National State Association to represent that National State Association at the USASA Elite Player National Camp for possible selection to USASA National Select Team.
This event was established in 1990 to determine a National Championship for State Select Teams. In the past has been held during the Thanksgiving Day weekend, but in 2003 the tournament was changed to January during the Martin L. King Holiday weekend. In 2009 this tournament will start a new era where League Select Teams within a National State Association are also invited to compete for the National Championship.
