Presidents Cup
Overview
The Presidents Cup brings together quality teams in Ohio to decide who will be crowned Champion.
It is the official qualifying tournament in Ohio for the US Youth Soccer Midwest Presidents Cup. Should teams become regional champions there, they are then qualified to participate in the US Youth Soccer National Presidents Cup.
Ages: U11 – U19, Boys and Girls
Timeframe: Presidents Cup is held over the course of two weekends in May. The Round Robin occurs during the first weekend of May and Semis/Finals during the third weekend of May. If we run into weather issues across any date/location, we may have to push to the next available Presidents Cup play date. Please keep all play dates and rain dates open on your schedule.
Eligibility Requirements:
- All eligible teams must play in a sanctioned OSA League for the current seasonal year.
- All current National League or Regional League teams and players are not eligible for this event – they must play in State Cup.
- Ohio Soccer State League teams may play in State Cup or Presidents Cup Division 1, but may not play in Presidents Cup Division 2 (see State Cup eligibility for National or Regional League consideration).
Recommendations: The Division 1 event is focused on those teams seeking to play in the second highest level of State competition with the potential to advance to the US Youth Soccer Midwest Presidents Cup (Regionals). The Division 2 event is focused on those teams who wish to participate in a state run event but do not wish to advance to a Regional event.
Important Rules: Roster freeze dates, club pass players allowed, play-in games will be used to achieve even brackets of four (Division 1 only).

Important Communications
We regularly send updates and information to club admins and teams involved in our Presidents Cup event. Below is a list of them for reference:
Event Rostering Information for All Teams and Play in Game Reminders-Sent March 8th
Presidents Cup event rosters & gameday information
We will be using GotSport for the Presidents Cup event rosters this year. Please see information below on how to submit and deadlines for completion.
Event Roster Deadlines and Freeze Dates
For teams with a play in game, event rosters must be submitted a minimum of seven business days prior to your play in game. This will give us a chance to double check for errors or missing rosters/information prior to the freeze. Event rosters are frozen three business days prior to your first game and will remain frozen through the State Cup Finals.(If you play on a Friday evening, Saturday, or Sunday, this means your event roster will freeze at 5pm on Tuesday) If you have any changes between your submission date and the freeze date, you will make the changes in GotSport, re-submit any new uploads of rosters in GotSport, and then teams will need to re-submit the event roster submission form marking it as a change for re-approval.
For teams who do not have a play in game, event rosters must be submitted by no later than April 22nd at 10am. Event Rosters are frozen three business days prior to your first Presidents Cup game which will be Tuesday, April 30th at 5pm if your team’s first game is on the RR weekend. Event rosters are then frozen through the Presidents Cup Finals. If you have any changes between your submission due date and the freeze date, you will make the changes in GotSport, re-submit any new uploads of rosters in GotSport, and then re-submit the event roster submission form marking it as a change for re-approval. If you are trying to card a brand new player for addition to your league roster before you can add them to your event roster, please contact your league for the latest date/time you must submit your carding information in order to meet the event roster freeze date.
Steps to Submit your Event Roster
Step 1- Login to GotSport and build your event roster. Use walkthrough instructions below. Please note that jersey numbers are required.
Step 2- Upload your OSA League Roster(s) into GotSport using the walkthrough instructions below. Please note there is one upload space for your original team’s OSA roster and one upload space for the OSA rosters of your club pass players. If you have club pass players coming from more than one team, you will have to scan them into one club pass roster attachment before uploading.
Step 3– Once the first two steps have been completed, please submit the Presidents Cup Event Roster Submission Form

For the Round Robin and Semis/Finals weekend, OSA will print all game cards and distribute to the referees prior to the game. OSA will also collect the gameday rosters from the referees after the game.

We understand that teams and/or coaches may have conflicts for Presidents Cup. We have avoided coach conflicts where possible. We do run into issues with field capacity and the number of games being played each day along with giving each team the same amount of rest time between games in the same day. Any change in the schedule creates a snowball effect on the entire pool and other coaches with multiple team conflicts.
Ohio Soccer will pay referee fees for all Round Robin through Finals games. Teams will split the referee fees for any Self schedule play in game.
Yes, if your team plays in the U13-U19 Ohio South Presidents Cup, the champion is required to play in the Midwest Presidents Cup.
