State Cup champions or any wild card teams should be aware of the following fees. The State Champion (or selected team) that proceeds to the Regional competition will be required to pay the Regional entry fee and a prorated share of the referee subsidy.

The Regional entry fee for the National Championship Series is $475.00 for the U13-U19 age groups and $275.00 for the U12 group.  The subsidy per referee that VYSA sends to Regionals is $225.00. We send approximately 16 referees and assessors. This year each U12 State Champion or wildcard will send a check of $500.00 and each U13-U19 State Champions or any wild cards will send a check for $700.00.

The process of putting the schedule together for State Cup is complicated. We have referee availability,  travel time, coaches who coach two teams, field availability, and requests for specific times.

If we look at the schedule in the order of field availability, travel time for teams, coaching requests, referee availability and then the specific requests from teams, we have a puzzle that is very hard to make changes to. When we get requests for changes after the schedule is published, it is almost impossible to make changes. If you have a need for an earlier or later game, that request needs to be emailed to the Cup Committee at a minimum of 1 week before your game. If we have the request early we will do our best to work it out. If not, then we can’t make changes. Your change will affect at least 3 other teams and sometimes more. Please be aware of the activities of the team you coach or manage and keep us informed. That is the only way that a schedule adjustment can be made.

Congratulations!

 Your team must make sure that the manager or team point of contact checks the State Cup web page for updates. We will try to call too, but that will be the last thing on our notification list. As soon as we know if a field is closed we will post it on the webpage..

All teams should be in cell phone contact with each other and must make sure that we have the cell phone number for the point of contact for the team. We will only post fields that are closed or have a field number change. Try to check before you leave for your game if you feel the weather will cause a problem.

We of course can’t be looking into a crystal ball to see what the weather will be like today during the day.  If we start the day on a field, we will play the games unless a club, park authority, town,etc, closes a field or a referee calls off the games.
