Registration for the IUSC 2017 Summer Season is open through Wednesday, May 31. We will offer Open, Coed and Over-30 leagues. Team fee is $900 for Coed, $400 for Over-30 and $450 for Open. You can send along a request for which Coed division you want to be in, but please remember that IUSC has the final say on classification to maintain competitive balance for the overall best interest of teams and the league as a whole.

New for this year: Open is 7-on-7 and will be played on the smaller fields at Cass Park that are traditionally used for Over-30 — two 25-minutes halves with most games on Sundays. Coed remains on the full field under the same format, with the majority of games on Saturdays. Each team will get 10 games starting as early as June 3 and running until mid-August.

To register, send the following to ithaca.united.soccer@gmail.com :
* Team Name
* League
* Captain name and email
* Co-captain name and email
* Roster
* Scheduling Limitations

Teams are assumed to be available for any match date listed below unless otherwise specified. As you know, I will accommodate any reasonable scheduling limitations, but you have to let me know before I write the schedule. Please consider the following …

* June 3-4: I’m the first to admit we’re behind schedule with opening registration, so I don’t think it’s fair of me to schedule anyone for Saturday, June 3 or Sunday, June 4 unless you agree to it ahead of time. So if you’ll have your teams ready to go and can accommodate late notice (no later than June 1), please let me know.
* Fourth of July: I will not schedule any games for any divisions from July 1-5. If your teams’ holidays extend beyond those dates, please specify.
* Coed Schedule: Primary match times are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays, with secondary start times being at 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday.
* Open Schedule: Primary match times are likely to be mid-afternoon on Sundays. Secondary start times are 6 p.m. or 7 p.m. Tuesday through Thursday.
* Over-30 Schedule: Primary match times are 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sundays and secondary match times are 6 or 7 p.m. Tuesdays through Thursdays.

Hi Everyone,
I regret to inform you all that the Guthrie coed tournament scheduled for May 6-7 has now been moved to the weekend of May 13-14. This decision is due largely to the weather (heavy rains) which has rendered the fields at Cass Park unplayable for the tournament. Please notify your players that the Guthrie coed tournament will not be happening this weekend. If you haven’t already gotten back to me, do advise whether your team would still be available to play next weekend.
Thanks for your understanding. We regret any inconvenience this decision may cause. For teams that were not going to take part this weekend, let us know if you want your team included for next week.
We look forward to seeing you all play in the Guthrie next week.
Regards,

The Guthrie Tournament, now in its 20th year, is Ithaca’s ultimate soccer fiesta uniquely blending competitive and fun soccer games of all skill levels with plenty of refreshments and music. It is our chance to leave the winter behind, get outside, and play the beautiful game. The tournament started in 1998 in memory of Gordon Campbell, a longtime resident of Dryden, who died unexpectedly in the fall of 1997. In celebration of his contributions to soccer as a coach, referee, soccer dad, player, team captain, advocate, and organizer, and to promote the beautiful game in Central NY, the IUSC requests club members, teams and unattached soccer players to join us for this very special event.

The City of Ithaca is working on a Parks and Recreation Master Plan that will help guide park improvements and maintenance as well as recreation programs over the next 10-15 years. Your input is important to us. Please take a few minutes to complete an online survey before March, 9, 2017 at
