Dear Area 3E and 3G Regions,

The Area 3E and Area 3G 9th Annual A.Y.S.O. Select Sevens Tournament will be held on two Saturdays in June. Note that this year there is one combined "high school" division for U-16 and U-19 players. The U-14 and combined U-16-19 Boys and Girls divisions will be held on June 7, 2008 at Herkimer Elementary School. The U-10 and U-12 divisions will be held on June 14, 2008 at the Westmoreland Town Park fields, Utica Proctor Park, and at the Washington Mills Athletic Park in New Hartford.

The tournament is planned to be round robin format with short-sided games, 7 v 7, in all divisions. Games will usually last 20 minutes with a short half-time break. Substitutions may be made at half time and, quickly, at a stoppage in play near half way through each half. Free substitutions will not be allowed. Maximum players per team roster is 12.

When selecting players for a tournament team, each Region should use a process that is fair and open to all players. During the tournament, Coaches should provide that all players receive as much playing time as possible. Every player should play at least half of the available playing time at the tournament.
