All new brackets have been updated for the entire tournament and can be found at the Tournament link.  Please note that most tournament brackets have been changed to one-and-out (single elimination) versus a two-and-out or double-elimination layout due to the game cancellations on Saturday.

Tournament Information

The 2009 Winton Valley SAY Fall Area Tournament will take place the weekends of October 10th-11th and October 17th-18th. The tournament includes all teams, irrespective of regular season performance from Wings, Strikers and Kickers levels of play.  Teams are bracketed into competitive levels, and winners of top bracket participants advance to the SAY State Tournament, usually held the first and second weekends in November.

Given the advent of Inter-play with districts outside of the Winton Valley area, we anticipate additional teams participating in the tournament.  We look forward to welcoming these new participants to the event.

Games will be held will be held at Kemper Meadow in Forest Park, Ohio.  The Boys Kickers and Girls Kickers finals have been traditionally held at another location in the evening under the lights on the final Sunday of the tournament.  This year, Wyoming High School will be the site for the Boys and Girls Kickers finals.

Tournament Volunteering Reminder

As a result of challenges in past tournaments with the adherence to the SAY playing time policy, coaches will be asked to provide a volunteer to act as time keeper for their respective team, to assure proper / balanced play of their during the game.  More details on the specifics of this policy will be coming from the tournament committee.

Winton Valley SAY Tournament Tie-Breaker Rules
 (subject to review prior to the tournament)

Applicable to Kickers, Strikers and Wings level play

NOTE: If both teams are playing their first tournament game, steps 1 and 2 do not apply (i.e. go directly to step 3 and use the Penalty-Kick shoot-out format to determine a winner).

1. If the regulation game ends in a tie, a 5-minute overtime period will be played. Kick-off order will continue as determined at the beginning of the game. Teams will switch ends and the team that kicked off to begin the third quarter will kick-off to begin the overtime period. The team scoring the first goal in overtime will be the winner ("Golden Goal").

2. If a tie still exists at the end of the overtime period, another 5-minute overtime period will be initiated. Teams will again switch ends and the team that kicked off to begin the fourth quarter will kick-off to begin the second overtime period. The team scoring the first goal in overtime will be the winner ("Golden Goal").

3. If a tie still exists at the end of the second overtime period, a Penalty-Kick shoot-out shall be used to determine a winner.

A. Prior to the first shoot-out round a coin toss will be taken. The winner of the coin toss shall shoot first.

B. Each team will select any five (5) players to kick in the first shoot-out round.

C. Teams will alternate taking shots until all 5 players from each team have shot once. The team scoring the most goals will be the winner.

D. If the score is still tied after the first shoot-out round, a second round of kicks will be initiated. Five (5) players will be used only if both teams have five available players. Otherwise the smaller roster will determine the number of shooters in the second round.

E. Teams will again alternate taking shots until all available players from each team have shot once. The winner of the coin toss in step ‘A’ will also again kick first. The team scoring the most goals will be the winner.

F. If a tie still exists after the second shoot-out round, each team will select any ten (10) players to participate in any order in a “sudden victory” shoot-out round.

G. Teams will continue alternating shots “one-set-at-a-time” until one team scores and the other team does not. Once a player has participated in a “sudden victory” shoot-out round, that player may not shoot again until all of the other selected teammates have participated.

H. If a tie still exists after all 10 players from each team have participated, then repeat steps ‘F’ and ‘G’ again (and again, etc.) until a winner is determined.

The Tournament Committee reserves the right to adjust these rules at any time.
