[[My U14 girl's Classic team last year decided to play in tournaments only in the Spring due to involvment in JV soccer. We were told by the SCYSA Cups and Games director that we could not play in the Classic Cup without playing in the PMSL. So in the strictest since of the word, it is not an open cup.]] from coach p

So, Coach P, would it be a fair assessment to say that SCYSA is or is NOT serving the best interest of your team and it's player? Is SCYSA looking to serve or be served? Are the SCYSA representatives really meeting the needs/demands of the state's youth by being as inclusive as possible? ...offering multiple ways to promote player development, retention and promotion? Or do their personal prejudices cloud the actual goal(s)/mission of the association?

Also, I agree with striker04...Columbia makes too much sense? Why doesn't the SCYSA look to collaborate with USC potentially to host the state cup. I'm not actually talking about the mens or women's program, but with the University. They've just constructed 2 or 3 brand new soccer fields on campus, plus the other ones available for student and athlete use? Again, this is hypothetical... and may not even be possible?
