Youth Team Check-In Procedure
- Youth teams are required to submit an ISC event roster at check-in prior to their first game. Rosters are frozen once your first game starts. This means that you cannot add players after the first game starts. The event rosters must be submitted in person at the tournament at our check-in desk. Please print off the roster and write in your player names on the roster. We do not allow the event rosters to be submitted via email.
- Bubble Blowout event rosters can be downloaded under Check-in Materials.
- Team managers must also present valid youth player passes for each player on their roster either at the time of check in or prior to the even by submitting the player passes via email to our tournament administrator. To be clear, all players that are still in high school, regardless of whether they are registered to play in the men’s open or women’s open, must provide proof that they have a valid 2023-2024 US Club Soccer player card or USYS player card. We will allow teams to send their players cards in electronically and will provide more details regarding how to do that prior to the tournament.
- We ask that teams check-in at least 30 minutes prior to their first game. The check-in location will be directly in front of field #2.
Adult Team Check-in Procedure
- Adult teams are required to submit an ISC event roster at check-in prior to their first game. Rosters are frozen once your first game starts.
- Adult players must also complete an online waiver prior to the start of their first game in order to be eligible to play in the Bubble Blowout.
- Bubble Blowout event rosters and the the adult waiver can be downloaded under Check-in Materials.
- A list of adults that have completed waivers will also be available under Check-in Materials and will be updated weekly.
- High school teams playing in the Men’s Open or Women’s Open will follow the procedures for youth team check-in listed above even though they are playing in an adult division.

Refunds
- In the event of severe winter weather, our tournament officials may need to cancel all games. If all of the games are cancelled for your team, we will issue a 75% refund.
- In some cases, weather conditions may force us to modify the game schedule and possibly cut a game from your team’s schedule. If only one game of your total games scheduled is cut due to winter weather conditions, no refund will be issued. Therefore, if the 9U-12U teams play 3 of their scheduled 4 games, no refund will be issued. If the 13U and Older teams play at least 2 of their 3 scheduled games, no refund will be issued.
