The 2009 Northern Ireland Youth Soccer Tournament Tournament was held between 27 and 31 July. The Northern Ireland Youth Soccer Tournament is an association football tournament and is divided into three categories: Elite, Premier, and Junior for differing age groups.
The Elite section had six teams in 2009, divided into two groups of three followed by a playoff, whilst the Junior and Premier sections were contested by 24 and 20 teams, respectively. Each team played once on Monday and Tuesday as part of a league, from which the top eight teams qualified for the Northern Ireland Youth Soccer Tournament quarter-finals on Wednesday. The remainder of the teams qualify for other cups that run alongside the Milk Cup, with quarter-finals on the Wednesday, semi-finals on Thursday, and the finals on Friday.
Clubs and national teams from anywhere in the world may compete on invitation.
