AYSO 114 Long Beach

Region 114 Battle at the Beach AYSO EXTRA Tournament

Tournament Schedule
Updates regarding Tropical Storm Hilary

Sunday 6:00am Our Tournament Board reconvened this morning to consider the latest information and advisories. While we think the local conditions will be playable, we recognize the unfairness and safety issues present for teams traveling from the Inland Empire. Some of our teams from outside Long Beach are receiving do not travel orders from their local governments.

We have decided the best course of action is to call games off for today.

Games schedule will resume on Saturday, August 26th. More info to come. We ask coaches and families to not email us about Saturday yet-- please allow a day or two for us to come up with how we will tackle logistics for your myriad availabilities. We will be in touch soon.

Tournament Check-in

Steps to check-in your team


Where do I check-in?

Your Check-in location is determined by the location of your first game.

If your first game is at Heartwell: If your first game is at McBride:
  • Check it at McBride (Tent at field entrance)
If your first game is at Monroe:
  • Check it at Monroe (Tent at field enterance)

Who needs to be present at check-in?

Send ONLY ONE representative to your assigned check-in location (see above) at least 40 minutes prior to game time. You do NOT need to send players.


What do we need at check-in?

Your representative MUST bring three items:

  • Roster signed by Regional Commissioner
  • Signed guest Player form (only if using guest players)
  • FOUR (4) prefilled Lineup Cards
    • Each card shall include jersey # and full player name, and be listed in jersey # order.
    • All players listed on lineup card must be listed on the signed roster. Any player on lineup card not listed on the roster will be marked ineligible.
    • Here is a lineup card template if needed

All teams must have photo ID or photo rosters with them at all times. These are not required for check-in. However, they must be presented to tournament or match officials if requested. (Photo roster sample here.)

Upon check-in, we will stamp each of the 4 line-up cards, and hand everything back to you. Prior to each game, please provide the match official with one of your stamped line-up cards.

Questions about check-in? [email protected]


How to Generate a Photo Roster in AYSO E4

If you want to generate an "Official AYSO Photo Roster" through the AYSO Association Platform "E4," here are the steps:

  1. In E4, from the top menu choose Teams > Team Lookup.
  2. Search for the team. Click on the team to view.
  3. At the bottom of the Roster tab, find the Print Official Roster or the Print Official Photo Roster button. (see screenshot)

If you do not have access to E4, check with your Region Commissioner, Registrar, or CVPA.

Our favorite feedback

"I wanted to thank you and everyone in your region for an amazing tournament this weekend. This was one of the best tournaments we have ever played in. Check-in was very easy (not having to have the entire team there to check in was just fantastic), and all of our games started on time and ended on time. Parking was plentiful and close to the fields, the fields were easy to identify, and all the food options were great. And both of my keepers participated in Goalie Wars and absolutely loved it -- you should have seen their faces when they were telling their teammates about the experience. Please thank everyone who volunteered so much of their time to make this such a great tournament. My parents and all the girls really had a great time and we hope to be able to do it again next year."

Standby Divisions (Yes, you should register still)

Once the division fills, it becomes a Standby division. Standby teams will be contacted if another team cancels, or if we expand the bracket to allow more teams.

YES you should register your team on Standby. We don't ask for payment or documents of Standby teams until we are able to officially offer them a spot. Registering your team, with the link below, is free and it reserves your place in line.

Even better, all goalkeepers of Standby teams are allowed to sign-up for our GOALIE WARS mini-tournament, which takes place Saturday night at the conclusion of the main tournament games. So if you have a goalkeeper, this benefit alone may be worth the time to sign up as a standby team!


👣 STEPS TO REGISTER:

  1. Click HERE to Register your team
  2. Submit (before August 1st) three documents, either as email attachment ([email protected]), or snail-mail (to address indicated on Application):
  3. Submit a single team payment within two weeks of acceptance, that covers both entry fee + referee deposit. You may pay via Venmo @BATB114, or paper check payable to AYSO 114 Battle at the Beach.

Standby teams only need to complete step 1 above (register your team online). That reserves your spot on the wait-list. Standby teams do need to submit any forms or payment until officially confirmed.


Fee Payment

You may submit one-time Team fees directly to our Venmo account @BATB114, or by mailing a team check made payable to AYSO 114 Battle at the Beach. Instructions are included in the Tournament Application. (See Tournament Documents below). Participants who wish to compete in Goalie Wars should pay separately.

Your Tournament Team fee must include both the team application fee and referee deposit. 🚫 Do not ask parents to send individual player payments for the Tournament. Your one-time payment must cover your entire team. (Parents should pay themselves for Goalie Wars, but that is different.)


Which birth years do we use?

We align with the upcoming 2023/24 season. So In Fall 2023, players in U9 were born in 2015. Players in U16 were born in 2008-09. If your team has multiple years of birth, register for the oldest age group on your team.

REGISTER FOR GOALIE WARS HERE

If you've got a goalkeeper, then this mini-tournament is for you! Matches every 90 seconds! Non-stop goalie dives, saves, blocks, and scores. Bring your team to cheer on your player to victory. Goalie Wars is not to be missed.

In 2023, we are excited to bring back GOALIE WARS 2.0 mini-tournament, Saturday evening, August 19th. Goalie Wars starts after the other tournament games have wrapped up. (About 6:00pm for the younger ages, about 7pm for the older ages.)


Date, Times, & Location

Saturday evening, August 19th at Heartwell Park Field 7

2012 - 2015 keepers: 5:45pm Check-In at Field 7 for 6:15(ish) tournament start

2008 - 2011 keepers: 6:45pm check-in at Field 7 for 7:15(ish) tournament start

The above times are ESTIMATES ONLY. Actual times will be announced the week before, based on # of registered goalkeepers.


PRIZES TO THE WINNER OF EACH DIVISION!

Our hope is to have single-year divisions, like Girls 2014, Boys 2014, Girls 2013... and so on. But, that all depends on how many goalkeepers register. If we have fewer players, we may opt to use AYSO divisions like Girls-10U, Boys-10U, Girls 12U... etc. TBD.
