Fall season to include State Cup• Secondary season – teams play in club tournaments and AYSO
Open Invitational and invitational tournaments
Region/Area Considerations Core
only or EXTRA/Challenge
EXTRA/Challenge may not negatively impact Core programs (specifically coaches, referees, admin)
• Players – sufficient interest & enough highly skilled players, also enough players to conduct Core program in the division
• Coaches - enough to support multiple programs • Volunteers – enough depth to support the Core
program when EXTRA/Challenge parent volunteers have road games

Considerations
EXTRA vs Challenge• Geography (isolated Regions)
• EXTRA – would require an Area EXTRA gaming circuit• Challenge – play in an existing club gaming circuit
• Number of teams• EXTRA – all teams play half their games at Region fields• Challenge – if fewer than 5 or 6 teams, Coast Soccer
League won’t schedule at Region fields • Field Scheduling
• EXTRA – draft schedule August 1st
• Challenge – schedule available late August
Considerations
EXTRA vs Challenge• Strength of Teams
• EXTRA – all teams play at same competitive level• Challenge – strong teams have opportunity to advance to
higher competitive level in subsequent years• Field Availability
• EXTRA – U11/U12 play on smaller sized field• Challenge – U11/U12 play on full size field
• Referees• EXTRA – Region provided, appropriate badge level• Challenge – paid referees
Considerations
EXTRA vs Challenge•Roster Size (talent pool)
• EXTRA – U11/U12: 11-12; U13/U14: 14-15• Challenge – U11/U12: up to 15; U13/U14: up to 18
•U10 EXTRA U11 Challenge• Roster size expands by 4-6 players• 7 v 7 to 11 v 11• Field size doubles
