Roster Freeze  
Roster freeze for teams is Wednesday, September 27th by 5:00 pm.  GotSport has taken away our ability to print rosters for the tournament. Teams also don't have the ability to print their tournament roster. Therefore, we are asking teams to bring a copy of your official roster from ASA, USYS, US Club, etc. You can write in any Club Pass or Guest players at the bottom. If you don't have access to this roster, you can print the blank roster form attached below to submit at check-in. Teams who check-in without a roster will be asked to fill out a blank roster.
