UNIFORMS
Team colors are included in the schedule. ACSA recommends that you bring alternate jerseys. In the event of a jersey conflict, the designated home team is responsible for changing.
All players must have similar colors shirts with a distinctive number on the back matching the roster. No two players from the same team may have the same jersey number.
Goalkeepers must wear a distinctive color from both teams and the referee. In the event of a conflict, the referee is required to change colors.
All players must wear shin guards.
TRAINING
An athletic trainer from
SELECT PT will be on-site at NEMP for the duration of the tournament. She’ll be able to help you with some first aid and treatment recommendations as needed.
For anybody with existing injuries, she’s also available to help with pre-game taping as time permits. Bring your own tape and pre-wrap to the Select PT tent before your game and she’ll get you set up.
CONCESSIONS
Austin-based food vendors LIL MAMA and
PEACHED TORTILLA will be at NEMP for your convenience. It’s highly likely additional concessions will be available through youth leagues also using the park. Other options can be found a short drive away; ask for directions at check-in or find an ACSA tournament volunteer.
Glass is not permitted at the park; trash cans are provided for your convenience.
SHIRTS
Tournament shirts will be available at the fields for $10 (tee) or $15 (3/4 sleeve). Please bring cash!
