Doug Hamilton Memorial Cup
Doug Hamilton, the former president and general manager of the LA Galaxy, was well known for his impact in the sport. When he passed away in 2006, US Club Soccer named its National Cup Finals trophy in his honor.
Now, there are more than two decades of champions that have etched their names underneath the Doug Hamilton Memorial Cup.
Having won the MLS Executive of the Year award three consecutive times (2003-05), MLS renamed the award the Doug Hamilton Executive of the Year Award.
Below are all the past National Cup Finals champions.
