AYSO 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.
