The Augusta Arsenal Spring Shootout is open to all USYSA and US Cub affiliated teams who are in good standing with their state and/or national associations.  All challenge, academy, classic, and athena teams are eligible to enter.  We will offer 6-a-side for U-10, 8-a-side for U-11, 8-a-side for U-12 and all other age groups (U-13 and U-14) will play 11-a-side. Separate playing divisions will be held to ensure competitive matches. The tournament committee does reserve the right to combine age groups (by 1 year only) if an insufficient number of teams register to form a single year age group.

 

All teams, weather permitting, will be guaranteed 3 matches - two on Saturday and one on Sunday. Finals will be played on Sunday afternoon. We are committed to placing teams in groups with other teams of comparable strength/ability that ensure competitive matches against teams they do not regularly play.
