Team Rosters
Team rosters that have been approved by the governing body for soccer in your province must be submitted prior to the tournament. WYSA-League teams are not required to submit their rosters as they have already been approved for league play. **If your team is participating in the 2025 WYSA Single Season, then that will be the roster used for the event. If your team is participating in the 2025/26 WYSA Indoor Recreational Season and already has a team formed in time for this tournament, then that will be the roster used for the event. Please note that Guest Player Forms must be submitted by October 15th, 2025, one week prior to the tournament kickoff!
Multiple Teams with the Same Coach
If you are a club/organization that is sending multiple teams, you may have a coach who is coaching multiple teams. If that is the case, please notify us about that as soon as possible so we can try and create a schedule that accommodates these various coaching duties. It should be noted that we will do everything in our power to try and accommodate your request, but it is not guaranteed.
Refunds
Refunds will only be considered based on the timing of the team removing themselves from the tournament and the impact it has on the division. All decisions based on refunds will be under the auspice of the WYSA Executive Director in consultation with the tournament committee.
