  • If a team’s first scheduled game gets cancelled or postponed, the team’s State Cup roster is still due according to when the game was initially scheduled to be played unless the rescheduled game is earlier than the initially scheduled game.
  • State Cup rosters are frozen at the time/day noted above for the remainder of the MSYSA State Cup. Player additions or deletions may ONLY take place by the MSYSA State Cup Committee or MSYSA State Office after the above applicable deadline in order to correct administrative errors. Administrative errors may ONLY be corrected until the team’s first game. Once a team has checked in with the referees for their first game, there can be no changes to a team’s State Cup roster.
    • Requests to correct administrative errors must come from a club representative or rostered team representative only. Requests from players or parents will not be entertained.
    • It is the responsibility of the person submitting the request to prove the request is the result of an honest administrative error.
    • Requests must be submitted with a $100 fee. A credit card link can be made available.
    • All requests must be sent to statecup@michiganyouthsoccer.org with enough time before a team’s first game for MSYSA to review, investigate, and discuss the request, to collect payment, and to correct the administrative error (if that’s the decision). Requests made with insufficient notice may not be accommodated. MSYSA is under no obligation to address requests during non-business hours.
  • MSYSA reserves the right to substitute a team’s league roster as their State Cup tournament roster if that team does not submit a tournament roster by the deadline noted above.
  • If a team does not submit a tournament roster by the freeze date and if a league roster is not available to MSYSA, then MSYSA shall assess the team a $100 per day late fee for each day the roster is late. Teams will not be permitted to play MSYSA State Cup games until the roster and payment are received. If teams play MSYSA State Cup games without first submitting a roster and late fees (if applicable), they shall forfeit any and all games played until the rosters and fees are received.
