Why Beach Cup?
The Division Commissioners and Board of Directors have unanimously and enthusiastically decided to continue a Pool Play format playoff. Pool Play style tournaments are the norm in the soccer world from The World Cup to Club Soccer tournaments to AYSO-Sanctioned Open Tournaments and Playoffs.
Pool Play means greater opportunities for your team and more certainty with your schedule. All teams in the Beach Cup will play a minimum of 3 games. And all games are pre-scheduled so you’ll know ahead of time when and where your next game will be.
Points system for pool play standings
- WIN = +6 points
- TIE = +3 points
- LOSS = 0 points
- GOAL = +1 point per goal scored, max of three per game, win or lose
- SHUTOUT = +1 point if opponent scores zero goals, including 0-0 ties
- RED CARD = -2 point deduction for each red card, including ejection of coach or assistant coach
- FORFEIT = Game is scored as a 2-0 loss.
- REFEREE POINT ADJUSTMENT = 0, -1, -2 or -3 dependent on ref point participation detailed here
Effort on a Loss or a Tie is important because your team can still earn points by scoring goals.
