Jamborees for U10 and U12:

...schedules will be posted here.

It is more age and developmentally appropriate for a fall recreational soccer organization to provide a fun/festive end of season activity than a winner-take-all tournament with its increased level of pressure on the eight through eleven year old player. Therefore, Davis AYSO offers a fun way for players and families to ease out of the fall soccer season.

[Note that coaches are not permitted to conduct their own tournaments outside of AYSO's scheduled jamborees. ]

PLEASE READ: Setup & Takedown information

 

U14 teams will participate in a Regional and Area Tournament at the end of the regular season. U19 will participate in the Area Tournament. Regional Tournament games are typically played during the two weekends in November, then the following weekend in November, there are usually Area Tournament games (weather permitting).

REGIONAL Tournament: Typically these games are played during the first two weekends in November with teams scheduled in brackets. Points are awarded during these games to determine the seeding of each team, as well as who will advance to the quarter-final and semi-final games. Medals are awarded at the end of the tournament to the top four teams.

 

AREA Tournament: Typically, the 1st place teams (and in some divisions, the 2nd place teams) will play in the Area Tournament against other AYSO Area teams.

 

FIELD SETUP AND TAKEDOWN:
SETUP: Each bag has one goal assembly, field flags, net anchors, and net ties. First, connect all three cross bars and then thread the net along the cross bar. Attach the uprights to the cross bar. Attach ground anchors to uprights. Center goals in the goal area with the front posts centered on the goal line. Make sure the front upright posts are leaning slightly forward prior to pushing anchors into the ground. Push the rear support posts into the ground and the front upright posts should become perpendicular to the field. Secure the net to the goal posts with net ties. Place 3-4 net anchors at rear of each net so that the net is nice and tight. Place one field flag on each corner of the field. Place a field flag on each end of the half line, one yard off the touchline.

 

TAKEDOWN: Disassemble goals and place one goal assembly in each bag, along with 3 field flags, anchors, net anchors and net ties. Return goal bags to the AYSO building after the last game. Leave equipment at West side door if no one is there.

 

Bag goals dimension and weight: 12" round, 8' long, about 50 lbs
