Austin Coed Soccer Association

Thank you all for patience and excitement while we try out something new this summer. The first ever ATX Coed World Cup starts June 2, 2018!

For those who haven't been keeping up, we have 9 groups with 4 teams in each group. One game against each team in your group, with the top 2 moving on to the upper level knockout round, and the bottom 2 going on to the lower division knockout.

"But Rob. That means there's 18 teams in each knockout, how will that work?"

Yes, yes, we will have two play-in games to see who makes it to the final round of 16. (and yes, teams not in the knockout on a particular week will get games scheduled as per normal).

Some important dates: June 23rd play-in matches, June 30th, Round of 16 starts, ATX Coed Cup Finals July 21st.

One thing we want to emphasize: I believe this is the first time that we've really randomized divisions (or in this case, groups) so there are some matches that pit top level teams against lower level teams. Prom Dates (my team) drew a D1, D2, and D3 team. Labor Crew, our treasurer, Marcus Ollington's team, drew a D1 and 2 D3 teams.

Neither of us are demoralized about this; if anything we're excited! Who knows what could happen? And in the end, this is all for fun. So, the takeaway, if you're in a mismatched game (on either side) just remember what this league is about.

Oh, team colors! The standing page is back up so that you can view your opponent's colors and email them if you have conflict concerns, just click over to your group - https://www.acsasoccer.org/standings/
