R1 and SubR Games

Simple - Eagles did not apply and Blazers did.

What about Scorpions G15s, Bolts B15s, and Blazers B18s?

Bolts B15

Lost 1-0 to Oakwood
Tied 1-1 to Hicksville Strikers

Ouch! That's tough.

Why is that tough? Looking at the scores, the games look competitive. I think that's what you are looking for by playing in Region 1.

How did VSA do?

Oh, is that way I'm supposed to feel?

The Team's official stamped State Association roster shall be used for the Colonial and Northeast League play. Rosters must be named [frozen] before the team’s first Colonial or Northeast League match or the date established by their State Association for named [frozen] rosters whichever comes first. Any team that has already completed State Cup Competition MUST use their Official stamped State Association Cup Roster.


Is the "State Association" roster the same as the State Cup roster or something different?

Given this, it must be that some of the kids on MPS teams are frozen out of all the Sub R games.

Lost to Terryville, beat CFC.

If that's what it means, it is absolutely ridiculous. Once again winning has been placed ahead of development.

The roster has to be 'frozen at some point'....otherwise teams and players would jockey their roster until the 'last minute' and it would create chaos! This rule forces players to commit to teams and it forces teams to commit to players at the inception of their season.

If one's only primary focus is development, then don't compete in the state cup, Region 1 or SubRegion leagues!! At some point, winning is an effective way to teach, motivate and develop athletes and prepare them for the rigors of life. There are plenty of other opportunities for those athletes that want to develop in an atmosphere where winning isn't important.[/quote]

Club passcard would solve the problem, but I suppose that concept is over your head.

You mean like the development academies have chosen not to do?

So this now means the development academy is the ultimate authority on this? They are always right?

It is my understanding that for Sub R league that the MPS teams are participating in rosters are submitted prior to each game played and that the roster can be different from week to week or game to game.

The state cup rosters obviously have been submitted and does exclude some players on an extended roster.

I doubt this is accurate unless MPS got special permission to change the SubR rostering rules. SubR rosters are frozen at the time of the first game. The SC rosters are not frozen until the first SC game.
