THIS INFORMATION MUST BE RECEIVED BY MARCH 9, 2012. Failure to do so may result in forfeiture and subsequent fines.

MSYSA will assign referees (center and 2 assistants) to all preliminary games. Any team who does not use MSYSA assigned referees may be subject to fines, game forfeitures, and/or disqualifications. Please see the State Cup rules for a referee fee chart. Teams are responsible for referee fees for all preliminary games. MSYSA only pays the referee fees for the Quarterfinals, Semifinals, and Finals.

SPORTSMANSHIP:
We anticipate the State Cup Tournament to be extremely competitive. Keep in mind that the aspect of sportsmanship is very important during the State Cup competition. Any inappropriate conduct by players, coaches, team officials and parents will not be tolerated by MSYSA.

Coaches, please remind your parents that they should NOT approach referees after the game with questions or concerns. If you feel a referee did not perform well, please e-mail the State Cup Committee at statecup@michiganyouthsoccer.org.
