Invitational Soccer Tournament
AYSO Region 218 (Davis) hosts its Davis World Cup Tournament on
Memorial Day weekend each year (the weekend of the last Monday in
May). This tournament is open to AYSO teams only. This is the premier
AYSO tournament for Northern California. About 120 teams participate,
generally coming from Northern California, Southern California,
and Nevada (although it is open to ALL AYSO teams).
Separate
brackets will be formed for Boys and Girls for U-19, U-16, U-14,
U-12, and U-10, based on the prior Fall age brackets. All players
must have participated in the prior Fall AYSO season - registering
players solely for the purpose of playing in this tournament is
not allowed.
All
teams will be assigned a country name from the list of FIFA national
teams.

TOURNAMENT
FORMAT
All teams are guaranteed a minimum of 4 games if there are 8 or
more teams in their division. The specific format depends on the
number of teams that are accepted in a division. Typically you will
have 3 short games (40 minute games except U19 and U16 which usually
are 60 minute games) within a bracket of 4 teams. The results of
these games are used to seed the teams for the first elimination
round. This means that all teams make it to the elimination round,
so all of your games have meaning! Elimination will continue until
there are 4 teams left playing in a championship and consolation
round. Typically the semifinal, consolation and championship games
will be full length.
In some
cases this format cannot be followed if there aren't enough teams
to fill the brackets to multiples of 4 teams. This usually only
will occur in the U19 and U16 brackets.
Please note that you can have games that start at any time
from 8:00 AM Saturday through 3:30 PM Monday.
