The 2009 USASA National Cup Finals
concluded Sunday, July 26, at Sylvan Lake Park, Sanford, Florida. Once again,
the national championships went smoothly despite the humidity, high
temperatures and rain showers appearances.
This year’s tournament
consisted of six divisions instead of the usual eight. Each of the four USASA
regions participated in the Men’s Open, Amateur, Over 30, Men’s &
Women’s Under 23, and Women’s Cup, a total of twenty-four teams.
Semifinals were held on Friday, July 24 in tournament format with half of the
teams advancing to the finals.
"I saw the Amateur Cup Semifinal between
the Rovers (CO) and the Eagles (IL) and I thought it was a really great game. I
was impressed with the level of play" said National Cups Chairman Werner
Fricker, Jr. of this year’s event. "Games like that shows that the amateur
adult teams across the country play at a fairly high level. They play weekend
after weekend for the love of the game."
