· Also, please keep in mind the Mass Youth Player Priority Guidelines, http://www.mayouthsoccer.org/pages/110_policies_procedures.cfm.  The MAPLE U11 K.C. Andre Cup Tournament, U12 Paul Irwin Tournament, MAPLE-D qualifying games, and other MAPLE promotion/relegation games have a lower player priority than the MAYSL games and post-season playoffs.  

 

· Requests to change Playoff Game dates and times will not be accepted.  In the event of severe inclement weather, games will be rescheduled by the league.
