Herndon All-Star Cup
The Herndon All-Star Cup returns November 20-21, 2021 to celebrate its 20th anniversary!
The All-Star Cup is a recreational tournament formatted for greater competition at the end of the Fall season, attracting hundreds of teams from many clubs. Each club selects their top recreational players in each age group, and form one or more "All-Star" teams to compete in the tournament over a weekend. The experience is fun and exciting for players, coaches and families!
U8 AGE GROUP FORMAT: U8 teams play 7 mini games (games are 25 minutes) in a round-robin format. No standings are kept for U8. Every U8 player receives a special participation award--no trophies are awarded in this age group.
U9-U19 AGE GROUP FORMAT: All U9-U19 teams play games in both the qualification round and championship round. Teams first compete in the qualification round, playing 4 games (games are 25 minutes). At the end of each game in the qualification round, the winning and losing teams are awarded game points. The game points are then used to seed the teams for the championship round. All teams proceed to the championship round on Sunday to play games that last 50-60 minutes in duration. Trophies are awarded to division champions and finalists at the conclusion of the championship round.
ROSTER SIZE: Teams are limited to 8 players in the U8 age group, 14 players in the U9-U10 age group, 16 players in the U11-U12 age group and 18 players in the U13-U19 age groups.
