    State cup schedule and Referee shortage

    Why would FYSA schedule State cup round 1 During the same weekend as the Region Cup Finals? Also two weeks earlier than previous years? This also puts a higher demand on refs needed when it's hard enough to get quality and quantity refs needed!

    SATURDAY, MARCH 14, 2015
    FYSA Region Cup Finals (All Day Event)
    Region D Cup (All Day Event)
    USYS National League (All Day Event)
    State Cup Round 1 (All Day Event)
    Region A Cup Finals (All Day Event)

    SUNDAY, MARCH 15, 2015
    FYSA Region Cup Finals (All Day Event)
    Region D Cup (All Day Event)
    USYS National League (All Day Event)
    State Cup Round 1 (All Day Event)

    Because the rules have changed for State Cup and the Round 1 and Round 2 now have to be split into two weekends each. To get them all in, they have to start earlier. You can only have one game per day now. Although in my opinion, they should make at least one of those weekends to be Fri, Sat Sun. I'd rather my daughter miss one day of school and travel one weekend than have to travel two weekends.

      The one game per day is very costly for the parents. I realize the size of the event, but this doubles the cost for all traveling teams for state cup, at least for the first two rounds. The refs are a whole different subject. With all of the soccer related events going on during the first round of State Cup, can you imagine how thin the pool of decent refs will be?

        $300 to $500 a weekend so one week you have 1 game and the next you have 2 two games Hopefully we get put in 3 team group so we only have 2 games

          If it's regional, shouldn't the games be an easy one day drive? Maybe a little long to want to do it two days in a row, but not so bad you have to get a hotel unless you want the convenience. If FYSA is doing it right...

          Ref situation also shouldn't be that bad. Less games per day since each team only plays once. Plus games are at more locations so less demand for refs in a given area.

              Some people will bitch about anything, so just for you, I have a solution!

              Region Cup Finals-They can use the least experienced refs. A parent that has watched over 2 games can ref these games.
              Region D Cup-You are kidding, right? Region D! LOL The parents from LA can ref those games, or join the teams and play themselves!
              USYS National League-Why did you even bring this league up? The games are bring played in Las Vegas! Doubt that will be a conflict here in Florida! And they are bring played the following weekend (20-22 of Mar). All National League teams have to play at CASL, and any Florida team with any sense will play the second series of National League games during the Disney Showcase.
              Region A-Rec finals can use local young refs or a parent that has watched more than 2 games.

                  I do not know why they just can't use knowledgeable parents or assistant coaches as refs and line judges and save a lot of money.

                    Yeah, right! You people scream at every chance you get at the referees that are trained. What would you do to parents and coaches? Public *****ings or stonings at half-time?

                      There's a 3v3 that weakend also, why don't you ask them to reschedule? They'll use more refs than the three games for Region A finals.

                        We are REQUIRED to play the national league in Vegas, it is not an option.

                          Total BS! If your team is playing National League in Vegas instead of Disney, then your team signed up to play in Vegas! The only games that are not an option in National League are the games to be played in Wilson, NC during CASL's tournament. So if you really are playing National League in Vegas then you and the rest of the parents voted to play in Vegas that weekend...during the SAT! And you are worried about your child taking the SAT? You should be more worried that they get more common sense than you have over the next year!

                          Listen, coaches out west do not recruit girls from the east coast because they will be too far from home and they miss their mommy then leave the program. It is a total waste of time to play Vegas, other than it is a great trip for the parents; gambling, drinking, and such. Been there done that, and heard that recruiting line directly from a Cali coach.

                            Maybe not so idiotic, other than the "parents being the refs" part. That was sarcasm I believe. I think their point was to say the State Cup games would get the better refs and I agree. They were right about the National League games being played in Las Vegas so that will not affect any refs for games. I would suggest your child keeping that GPA up over 4.0 so that will trump any SAT score issues. It has been proven that SAT and ACT scores only go up, or even down, 2% when taking them multiple times. As they say, you either know it or you don't!

                              We are not a girls team and do not have the option to play disney. That only leaves 2 other options CASL and Vegas.
