Last year, as I understand it, the SCYSA selected the upstate district, CESA volunteered its fields, but CESA couldn't find enough volunteers with the tournaments it runs and thus the SCYSA had to provide the volunteers.
In the SCYSA board minutes from June 12, 2005 is the following:
"Barry made a motion to accept the bid from Burning Hills Soccer Club to host the small sided games competitions (Palmetto Classic and Kohls American) and from Carolina Football Club (Spartanburg) to host the SCYSA Challenge Cup, SCYSA Classic Cup and Kohls American Cup (U13-U19) in the fall and spring season. Doug seconded the motion."
The next minutes with mention of this was Sept 11, 2005:
"Steve C. and Barry met with Pearse Tormey of CESA to finalize the fields for the State Cups. We have reserved 16 fields for the Classic and American Cup November 19-20 and six fields for the Challenge Cup December 3-4. The games will be played at the following fields: MESA Complex (7 fields), Wenwood Complex (4 fields) and Pittman Park (5 fields). Pittman Park is supposed to have 3 fields with lights by State Cup time. CESA will handle trash, concessions and field setup. The board will handle the field marshalling, tee shirts and program. The field usage fee will be the same as the leagues pay ($30 per game)."
Does anyone know what happened between June and September? Why did CFC pull out? I believe Burning Hills did host the Palmetto Classic and Kohls American Cups.
