Cal North Founders’ Cup competition is established exclusively for Recreational teams that play in Cal North recreational leagues. Founders’ Cup is a fabulous opportunity for recreational level teams to enter and compete in an advancement-style tournament. Founders’ Cup offers competition in the U10, U12, U14, U16 and U19 age groups. All Cal North Recreational teams are encouraged to enter the Cal North Founders’ Cup. Because Recreational teams often play against only other teams from within their league of registration, the team’s rosters may be approved for intra league play only. If a team does not already have a roster and player passes that have been authorized by the District Registrar, it is important to check with their League Registrars well in advance of the Founders’ Cup application deadline in order to ensure their roster and player passes will be reviewed and authorized for Cup play and in time to obtain the district-authorized roster that is required for the cup application. The registrar can guide the team through the requirements for obtaining their member passes in time for the Founders’ Cup games. U10, U12 and U14 Founders’ Cup will be played in December. U16-U19 Founders’ Cup will be played in late February and early March.
