The 2012 Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup will be the 99th edition of the USSF's annual national soccer championship, running from May through early August. The Seattle Sounders FC, of Major League Soccer enter the competition as the three-time defending champions, making this tournament the first domestic tournament since 1970 that a team enters the tournament as the three-time defending winners.

For the 2012 tournament, U.S. Soccer has increased the main tournament from a 40-club tournament, to a 64-club tournament. All Major League Soccer clubs based in the U.S. receive automatic berths. This makes the U.S. Open Cup very similar to other domestic knock-out competitions where all top tier clubs earn automatic berths.

The winner will qualify for the 2013–14 CONCACAF Champions League Group Stage.

Qualification

For the first time, all 32 professional teams from the first 3 tiers of American Soccer will be participating. Additionally, 32 teams will also qualify from the USL Premier Development League, National Premier Soccer League, United States Adult Soccer Association, and US Club Soccer.[1]
