“Saskatoon Youth Soccer Inc. took great pride and privilege in the ability to host the 9-aside indoor youth provincial competition in Saskatoon over the weekend. This event showcases our world class soccer facility to teams from all over the province and provides our local teams a meaningful competition in their own backyard eliminating substantial travel expenses. In order to extend these benefits for all levels of play, we take pride in hosting the 9-aside and 6-aside competition on alternating years and we look forward to seeing many new faces at the 6-aside competition in 2021. We’d like to thank Saskatchewan Soccer Association for providing us the opportunity to host and hope that all participating teams had a fun weekend” said Amanda Probe, Executive Director of Saskatoon Youth Soccer.
The format for the Soccer For Life Youth Indoor 9-aside Provincial Championships included the tracking for the Most Valuable Player (MVP) award. This is determined by the coaches ranking the top two opposing team’s athletes in each game throughout the tournament. At the end of the tournament, the player with the most points is the Tournament (age group) MVP. A Team Fair-Play Award is also presented. The Award is based on the determined scores of the officials on the conduct of the players, coaches and fans of each team during each match. A cumulative team score is recorded throughout the course of round-robin play.
