Why the Change?

The Division Commissioners and Board of Directors have unanimously and enthusiastically decided to implement 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.

The Pool Standings are based on a 10 point system.

     WIN = +6 points
     TIE = +3 points
     LOSS = 0 points
     GOAL = + 1 point (one point per goal scored, up to three per game, win or lose)
     SHUTOUT = + 1 point (0-0 tie constitutes as a shutout)
     RED CARD = -2 point deduction for each red card and ejection of coach or assistant coach
     FORFEIT= Game will be scored a 1-0 loss.  Winner receives 8 points
     REFEREE POINT ADJUSTMENT = (-1) point deduction on all Pool Play games.


Even a loss or a Tie is important because your team can still earn points by scoring goals.  Depending on your Division, Teams that win their Pool, place second, or earn enough points for a wildcard, will move on to the Elimination Round.  

The Beach Cup begins Nov 10th for 10UB & 14UG.  All other Divisions will begin play on Dec 1st.  There are no games during the Nov 17-25 Thanksgiving Holiday.
