Coaches,

Please ensure your Parents/players complete the online Player Waiver form and submit it for each player. This helps ensure all players are verified and will shorten your check-in time before your first game. Here is the link to the waiver:

Coaches and Teams,

********Please read everything in this email.*********

The Tournament schedules are now posted for the 5v5 Soccer tournament this weekend. Please remember DO NOT send screenshots of the schedule to your fans/teams/players / or parents or use them for yourself. Use only the live site, as the schedule is subject to change (screenshots do not update). The best way to see the schedule and follow your team is by downloading our free app 5v5soccer. Click here for our free 5v5 Soccer App: Android or iPhone

Online Schedule Link

If you or your players ordered a tournament t-shirt in the player waiver process, please pick it up at the tournament HQ, after your second game (this will allow coaches time to complete their team's check-in process). We will have a handful of extra shirts on site for $20, cash, or Venmo @us5v5soccer.

I recommend having all your parents and players download our app to follow your team(s) and to receive automatic schedule updates, messages, and all things important about the tournament, our app is free on Android or iPhone (5v5 Soccer).

Every team will play at least 4 games - Once your Pool play is completed - you will have to go to the button in the app called bracket to see the playoff games -once all scores are entered from pool play the names of teams will automatically fill into the bracket play - and you can see which teams advanced and when and where they play. (This does take some time)- Please don't rush over right after your 3rd game and start asking where you play - we will not immediately know as we have to wait for the updates as well. All other divisions play round robin (this means you play each team in your division 1 time (twice in a 3 pool bracket). You will place 1st, 2nd, 3rd and so on based on points (see rules for tie breakers).

1st, 2nd, & 3rd place will receive medals. These teams will qualify for the National Championship in Florida this November 2024. Please visit 5v5soccer.com/nationals for more info.

Make sure all your players have completed the online player waiver https://5v5soccer.com/waiver - (parents get a confirmation email once this is completed - so you can have this sent to you for verification) Proof of age must be uploaded to this waiver - birth certificate / passport / player card (please contact me if you don’t have access to these forms of proof)

The online waiver will be checked against the official paper roster turned in 30 mins before your 1st game. If a player has not completed the online waiver but plays in a game or isn't on the official roster but plays - the game is then forfeited and scored 10-0 for the other team (there will be a short (very short) grace period for players to complete the online form onsite - the official roster can not be changed once your 1st game has started.

The max roster is 10 players - the 10 players on the roster that is turned in must stay the same for all the games. Please only have 1 person from the team (coach or team manager turn in the official roster to keep the process moving at HQ).

Team roster (that needs to be printed and brought to check in completed) can be found at https://5v5soccer.com/documents

Rules, Waivers, and Team Rosters can be found on the link below.
