When I was on the board the problem was that a lot of the clubs didn't want to do the state cups. It was a lot of work for the clubs and they didn't always see the return on the dollar to host it. Really, the board would prefer the tournament to be in the Midlands every time because of logistics for everyone involved but that would not be fair to the other great clubs in the state. Ideal would be for SCYSA to purchase it's own fields in the midlands somewhere and hold everything there, but that would always be cost prohibitive. I think the way it is done now is the best way. They try to switch the cup between the three regions every year and if no club wants to do it in that region then they open it up to the other regions....
