Returning for 2025! – “Player of the Game” Bag Tags!
Again this year at ages U09-U12, we are providing all coaches of U09-U12 teams with Shakopee Cup “player of the game” bag tags. We ask coaches to present them to members of their own team after their match. Managers or coaches can pick up their player of the game cards at the nearby field marshal tents near the location where your first game is played.

Participation Medals
Medals will be awarded to all U09-U10 teams. These will be available near the big tent at Shakopee High School, or at the 17th Avenue Headquarters. These can be picked up Sunday, or any time after noon on Saturday.

Weather
We again are hoping to have great weather. We use The Lightning Tracker App and Accuweather for any lightning monitoring. Communications will be sent out through exposure and pinned above the schedule. If deemed necessary, referees may delay, pause, postpone games for safety prior to tournament committee. Please cooperate.

Field Maps
At Shakopee, if you are at the wrong field, you are never too far away from the correct field.

Our all city map and all tournament maps can be found here:

Parking and Traffic
Parking at 17th Avenue will get crowded. Be sure to utilize Sun Path Elementary’ s parking lot as an alternative. Utilizing the Marshall Road exit to go to Sun Path may alleviate some backups on 17th Avenue.

Shakopee High School – Parking at the high school could get crowded during parts of the weekend due to other events, we will have golf cart people movers to help those parked further away.

We do not allow exiting out of the east entrance. Proceed to the west and north exits when leaving.

If you have any questions, please email dandietzel@shakopeesoccer.com for assistance.

Hello,

This is a reminder that if you are in a division with multiple colors, we have multiple Championships / Finals due to the large number of teams in those groupings.

The top qualifiers proceed to those games which are separate Championships, each award with medals for first and second.
