The fields for the 10 age groups that will take part in group play at the Wisconsin State Championships over Memorial Day weekend should be finalized this weekend, as the last play-in games of the competition are scheduled to be played Sunday.
Fifty-six teams have been seeking the final 28 spots in the Boys Under-13, Under-14 and Under-15 divisions in the one-off, play-in games over the past few weeks. View schedule (pdf)
Group play for Boys Under-13 through Under-19 divisions and Girls Under-13, Under-14 and Under-19 divisions at the State Championships, commonly referred to as the State Cup, is scheduled for May 28 to 30 – though some Under-18 boys matches could be played May 27 to avoid conflicts with high school graduation ceremonies.
Semifinals are set for June 4, with the finals June 5. All group play and playoff matches will be played at Scheels USA Youth Complex in Appleton.
Champions of the Wisconsin Youth Soccer Association event advance to the U.S. Youth Soccer Region II Championships, which are June 25 to 29 in Westfield, Ind. The state competition in the other four girls age groups, Under-15 through Under-18, was held last fall to avoid conflicts with the WIAA high school season in the spring.
