| The ever increasing liability and the consequent exposure to potential law
suits forces us to take this step. We thus encourage every unaffiliated team to talk to
their respective league to become a member of their state soccer association. Even if your
league is not willing or able to become an official member of the world soccer family, you
should still be able to register your own team with your state association. The main
benefits include liability and medical insurance for all your players. See more
details and additional benefits at http://www.usasa.com/membership/index.html
.
Assuming the sanctioned tournament
status for future events, we do expect to attract a larger number of teams from other
states and regions as well as international participants form every corner of the soccer
word. Overall, we strongly believe, that this step will benefit you as a
participant, attract even higher caliber players and referees, and will enhance the
overall status of our tournaments even further.
The USSF registration year starts on
September 1st and ends on August 31st the following year. For more detailed information
about costs and procedures, please go to http://www.mdcvsa.org/
(for VA and DC based teams) or contact your local state association.
At this point, the above regulations do
not apply to our 6-a-side events.
If you missed the
deadline: e-mail or call us (703) 295-0690
we still might have a spot for you and get you in!
