WSM, no.

According to the email I got it stated no WSM teams would compete in OYSA state cup. Doesn't sound like we had a choice.

No, OSSA. It was never even brought up.

Not sure what OSSA team you play on, but it was bought up with all of the U16 girls. I find it odd, because I really felt it was very well communicated and the options were presented clearly. My daughter plays on Blue I. Who is your coach? My daughters coach is Fraser and he let the teams decide. When presented with the info, we chose OPL.

CFC, yes. We were allowed to choose based on what we felt was best for our team. We will end up with teams in both. That's the way it should be at all clubs. Why would a club tell you what is best for your team?

Esufc

Man OYSA must really be hurting. ESU teams can do both. I have heard JR say it out lound "you can do OYSA state cup". ESUFC Liverpool won state, regionals, and nationals when everyother team was only OPL. The fact is ESUFC teams are playing OPL mostly because of time and money. They would have to pay for the cards, leuage and state cup when they have the opl state cup. They could use all that money to go to US Club regionals if they don't win the OPL state cup or another event.

It is called choices, and just because someone doesn't choose you doesn't mean they didn't have a choice.

Don't forget ESU, WSM are now part of the Timbers. The Timbers and GW are very much connected to OYSA, GW, JR and JB I am sure would let a team to OYSA, just why would they.

JB already made it very clear that no WSM teams will be doing OYSA State Cup.

Nope

He made it very clear they will be doing OPL state cup, cost less. WSM is working on a budget, smart move. If a WSM wanted to raise all the money they could.

OYSA just put in pizza ovens, no delivery yet but soon.

No, LOSC. We haven't been given any informaton about the State Cups, possibly since our spring league is still in play.

I heard about this discussion and this discussion board today and have to say I'm a little taken back. Perhaps the coach or manager decided for our team.

Are you even going to US Nationals?

Even if you win OPL State Cup are you going to the US Nationals or Surf...if invited?

Pretty obvious an OYSA employee started this thread and pretty obvious they are stacking the poll count. They must think we are stupid. Insulting! Not surprised though given their track record. We play at THUSC and we had a choice. We chose OPL. Much better competition and don't really care about regionals. See ya all at Surf! We already paid our entry

So what of the other OPL teams at other age groups that are not likely to get Surf invitations? Wouldn't it be better for them to go to Regional�s than to go to a National Championship that even YOU don't value?

Regionals is not what it used to be. Would rather stay home and save the money. Been to regionals twice and it isnt what it used to be. There are plenty other tournaments to travel to with better comp. Ecnl and da have depleted regionals. Just the way it is now. Time to move forward.

Do you realize you made OYSA's point

Well Mr. THUSC I wonder if you realize that you made USYS's point about circumventing the best competition when your team/club is opting for a Fake Cup that you place little to no value in.

I could ask what are you scared of but I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that Surf provides equal exposure to coaches but unless you get into the premier division it just won't mean as much as winning Regional�s. Say how did your DD�s team do two years ago at Regionals? Did you win any games?

We got beat. This is no secret, but the teams that beat us, don't play in their own usys state cups anymore. Everyone of them is an ecnl team and everyone of them will be at surf. Time for revenge. Believe me we will be cheering for every Oregon team, not just our own. When othet OR teams win out of state it is good for OR soccer as a whole.

It's actually Mrs. THUSC. Just don't want anyone distorting facts on thus completely credible forum.

What about all of the OTHER teams that have NOT been to Regionals? Don't they deserve the opportunity to go?
