All Men's First Division and Majors games delay to May
4th this year because of the excessive cold and snow amounts. Three weeks ago,
Wauwatosa School District took a few core samples of some fields they have
under re-construction and they found 27 inches of frost. Because a few clubs
have been trying to repair their fields and the additional water from melting
and April rain, the league decided to move the start date back to May
4th.

This year, for all levels of play,
all foreign born players must have an International Clearance form if they
entered the U.S. after 12 years of age. It takes 30 days to be cleared once the
form is received by the USSF. If no reply is received in 30 days from place of
origin, the player will be considered cleared per the USSF.
So get your
players cleared if they haven't received a clearance already.
Get your
entry forms in early so we can make up a schedule early and notify the
referees.
Rule books will be sent out when we get them from the Region
to the Participants.
Good Luck to all Teams!
