Well it would be a shame if all the other clubs in the State have to play the weekend before Christmas,just so CESA can go to a tournament. I know lots of folks plan on going out of town for the holidays...maybe we should all check with CESA before we make any holiday plans,to be sure it doesn't conflict with anything they have scheduled...

It always amazes me how willing people are to talk about things when they have ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA what they are talking about.
Who said "all the other clubs in the State" would "have to play the weekend before Christmas"? Nobody has ever suggested that.

As far as I can tell, the US Club tournament only effects 3 first round games:
U15 Girls: 1-CESA 94 Premier vs. 8-SC Bulls 94 Red
U16 Girls: 1-CESA 93 Premier vs. 8-SC Bulls 93 Red
U17 Girls: 1-CESA 92 Premier vs. 8-CRSA Sky92
One of these has already been taken care of if the SCYSA schedule page is correct:
U17 Girls: Tues. Dec 1 5:00 pm CESA 92 Girls Premier vs CRSA SKY 92 at Lexington County Soccer #9
If the other two are handled in the same manner then no other teams will be effected. This type of change is nothing new and has been done quite a few times in the past.

A few years back a CESA Premier girls team gave up home field advantage to a Discoveries team in a first-round state playoff match. CESA was playing in the CASL Showcase (Raleigh Shootout) and they played Discoveries in Rock Hill, on a Thursday night, on their way up to Raleigh.

Hurst66: That was the example I could remember as well, but I do remember this happening on other occasions. I just can't remember the specifics. Getting old, I guess.

I agree. I believe in each case the CESA team will be giving up home field advantage and traveling. The entire event won't be moved, and I don't think anyone is being asked to play before Christmas or Thanksgiving.
The level of ignorance displayed is sometimes shocking.

"Ignorance" is my wife and I scheduling a trip to the Bahamas on the same week as the state cup final.  Especially when the semi's and finals are being played in our backyard.  If the state cup finals get moved back a week.....I'm all for it!
