OCTOBER 23: FINAL SCHEDULES RELEASED

CYSA District IX Cup Championships

2008 District IX Cup Championships

New dates and new structure!

WARNING - LAST MINUTE RULE CHANGE! On Sunday, October 19 the District IX Board of Directors changed the team checkin procedure. Teams are now required to obtain credentials verfication from their home league registrar and are no longer required to checkin on Friday night before the cup (rule VII.j.). Please contact your league registrar to obtain the necessary clearance. You will be given a form to present to the host site before your first game.

The 2008 District IX Cup Championships tournament is for CYSA District IX boys and girls teams in the U12, U14, U16 and U19 age groups playing in either Division 3 or Division 4. There are separate cups for each age, gender and division. This year the District Board of Directors has decided to return the District Cup to a "tournament of champions" and team entry will be handled by each league. The entry fee for this year will be $200.

Up first will be the Division 3 Cup on the weekend of November 8 and 9 (rain or shine). The Division 3 Cup will be played at the Redding Soccer Park. The Division 3 Cup is open to all District IX Division 3 teams that have participated in an approved league.

The Division 4 Cup has a new format this year. The Cup is open only to each league's champion (ie Anderson sends one team, Lassen sends one team, etc). Each league can determine independently how their league champion is "crowned". Additional slots will be awarded to the Cup hosts and the larger leagues in District IX if necessary. The Division 4 Cup will be held on the weekend of November 15 (with an alternate rain date of November 22). The cups will be played and concluded in a single weekend with each age group championship game being played on Sunday afternoon (typical). Division 4 Cup locations: U12 Boys: Corning; U12 Girls: Lassen (Susanville); U14 Boys: Anderson; U14 Girls: Shasta Lake. There are no older age group cups in Division 4.
