Thank you for your patience with the weather.

Good Evening,
We had a few changes in the schedule not many. Please check them again.
The weather looks we have a high percent chance of rain in storms @ 8am. So we may delay the start. I will make a decision at 630am and send an email out. Looks we have a better chance after 11am. We are on field 5 at Ben Geren. It drains well and does not hold alot of water where I have the fields painted. It is located behind the concession.
I appreciate your patience with everything.
Let's hope the weather plays into our favor.
More updates to come.
Thank you,
Steve

Dear Coaches and Teams,
Our goal as an organization is to give opportunities for children and teams to play this awesome sport of soccer. As tournament directors, our number one goal is to allow the teams who signed up to play. We work very hard to accommodate all requests and place teams in a division that gives all teams a chance to play. In a perfect world I wish we could have all age pure divisions but that is not always possible.
We make it clear when you sign up that you may be combined with an age group one year up or down.
The tournament schedules will be posted for the 5v5 Soccer tournament in the morning. You can view them using this link:https://soccer.exposureevents.com/257597/5v5-fort-smith-ar
Please review the schedule to ensure you are in the correct division and that there are no conflicts with your bracket(s). Schedules are subject to change, so be sure to check back on Friday evening.
Please check your team in at the tournament headquarters tent 30 minutes prior to your first game. Remember to bring a print out of your team roster, along with proof of age for each of your players. Only one representative from each team needs to attend the check-in.
Thank you, and if you have any further questions, please feel free to contact me.
Best regards,
Steve Gatesman

Good afternoon,
Just wanted to send out a quick update. Waiting on a couple of more teams to register before I send out the brackets. I will be reaching out to a couple to teams to discuss bracket options this evening. Please be in a look out for a text from me.
The forecast keeps changing. We will play in the rain if is not lightning/downpoor.
We plan on starting first round of games at 900.
Thank you for your patience with bracketing and scheduling.
