---application letter and form available, click on Presidents Cup Application

VYSA will run the Presidents Cup again in the same format as last year. The U13 and U14 age groups both boys and girls will play their games this Fall 2010. The Presidents Cup Calendar is available on this page. (Please note a date change for the semifinal and final games for the boys and girls. As we looked ahead to tournaments, we found that these date changes would accommodate more teams that would like to enter the Presidents Cup.)

The application for play for these two age groups is available by clicking on the application article on the left. The due date for all applications will be September 29, 2010. The fee to enter will be $325.00 and must be paid on line by credit card. If there are any questions, please contact Anne Thompson at annetomsn@aol.com.

Presidents Cup Announcement

The VYSA Presidents Cup will be run in the Fall of 2010 for the U13 and U14 boys and girls age groups and at a date to be determined in early 2011 for the U15, U16 and U17 boys and girls age groups.

The State winners will go to a single Region 1 site for the Regional finals. This year the games will be played on Memorial Day Weekend, May 28, 29 and 30. The location for Regional finals is the Albany, New York area.

In Virginia, the U15, U16 and U17 boys and girls will continue to play only State Cup in the Fall. The State Champions and runner up teams from the Fall 2010 State Cup competition may not enter the Presidents Cup in Spring 2011. In addition, no team that applies to or is accepted by the Region 1 Premier League or the Colonial League may enter the Presidents Cup competiton. All other U15 -U17 teams will be eligible to play in the Presidents Cup competition.

If a U13 or U14 team wins both Cups, they must accept the State Cup Championship and proceed to the National Championship Series Cup. In this case the second place team in the Presidents Cup will become the Presidents Cup Champion and go to the Regional event for the Presidents Cup. The cost to enter the VYSA State Cup and the VYSA Presidents Cup is 325.00 per team per competition.

The State Champion (or selected team) that proceeds to Regional competition will be required to pay the Regional entry fee. The Regional competition fee is not set for the 2011 Presidents Cup, but the entry fee for last year was $500.00. Each team will also pay a prorated share of the referee expense. This share will be determined once Virginia knows the number of referees required and the expense per referee. Last year this expense was 200.00 per referee and we sent 10 referees.
