2014 State Cup

2014 was the first year where we a coordinated effort between MUSC teams (players playing up to help other teams) and other clubs (VYSA and PSC) to form teams that would benefit from the State Cup experience.

At the younger age groups, the only goal is to educate our players and families about what the next level of soccer looks like and how we can improve to compete with that level in the future.

In our league, we do not generally see the best teams in our area. The top Spokane and Tri Cities teams do not play in our league, playing in Seattle based leagues instead, and CDA Sting “A” teams usually play just a few games in NWL vs. hand picked opponents to gain eligibility for State Cup, while simultaneously also playing in a Seattle based league. The NWL is mostly comprised of second and third tier teams from throughout the region.

We also would not be accepted to most tournaments that these top teams play, so the only way to see decent opponents and challenge our higher level players is to gain that experience is at State Cup. Since the State Cup experience would not benefit all Moscow United players, we present it as an open option to players to choose on their own.

At the High School age groups, the goal of State Cup is to win and gain exposure to college coaches, which regularly scout State Cups.

QCF GU17 – 1W 1D 2L - Lost to State Champion by a goal in group play. 7 MUSC players played on this team.

BU13 – 1W 3L – Lost to State Champion by 10 goals in group play. 13 BU13 MUSC players played on this team, along with 2 MUSC BU12 players, and 5 BU12 PSC players

3.Fusion teams At the high-school level, competitive teams are

formed by choice through a selection of players, using a well-planned tryout procedure (in Fusion BONZI).

When individual clubs do not have sufficient players to field a team, Fusion collaboration can be applied to form teams at any age level

Moscow United registers next year’s U13 and U14 with MUSC and consider these players for inclusion (rostering) on Fusion teams for State Cup tournament, after parent informational meetings.
