U.S. Open Cup
On March 29, 2021, the U.S. Soccer Federation announced a truncated format for the 2021 U.S. Open Cup, with 16 clubs participating, entering at the same time in a Round of 16. The format included just four teams from the USL Championship, the four semi-finalists from the 2020 playoffs (El Paso, Louisville, Phoenix, and Tampa). Due to the fact that Memphis failed to qualify for the 2020 USL-C playoffs, this eliminated the club from the 2021 U.S. Open Cup.[5]
