 What
is a certified roster?
A certified roster is different than a Quickfoot
roster form that you list your players on. A certified
roster is the official roster used by your association
for your team. Rosters must be signed by the registrar
& coach, and be an official association document.
Rosters written down in pen/pencil will not be accepted.
Any roster that is typed up must be signed by the association's
registrar & coach. Only USSF sanctioned association
rosters will be accepted.
Can
I use an indoor team roster as my required certified
roster?
There is a way for everyone to participate. If
you do not have an outdoor roster, we will accept an
indoor roster. However there will be an additional fee
per player since we are not allowed to accept indoor
rosters as official rosters by the state associations
that sanction our tournaments. You will be participating
as a non-registered team. Please contact our office
if more information is needed.
Can a girl play on a boy’s team?
Yes, this is allowable, however, boys may not play on a girl’s team.
I just finished looking at the schedule, why am I in an older age group?
Quickfoot does everything possible to keep “pure” age divisions. In some cases, in order to fill a division or allow another team to play we must combine two age groups. By association rules we must name the division according to the oldest team within it. (I.e. even if there are 8 U10 teams and 1 U11, we will still name it a U11 Division).
Should I fax you my medical releases with my other paperwork?
We prefer that you send these in prior to the
tournament to avoid congestion during team check in.
Medical releases can be used from past tournaments or
the one’s on file with your team. These releases
do not need to be notarized.
When will the schedules for each tournament be posted?
The tournament schedules will be posted at noon the Wednesday prior to the tournament.
Does
the coach we are using have to be the registered or
official coach of our team?
No, anyone can coach a team participating in
a Quickfoot tournament.
One of my players is sick, can I replace him on the roster?
Yes, a player can be substituted at any time
up until the time of the first game. Rosters are frozen
at kickoff of the first game time. Player substitution
forms can be found in the “Forms” section
of our website. This form can be faxed in or presented
at check-in.
When is the tournament check in?
You will need to check in Saturday 1 hour prior
to your first game at the tournament site. Only one
person needs to check the team in – team members
are not required to be at check in.
Why aren’t there any playoffs for my U8 team?
Almost all associations enacted a rule that U8
divisions are strictly recreational and competitive
situations like playoffs are not to be scheduled. However,
all U8 and younger teams are invited to the Mrs Baird's
Quickfoot Tournament Series Championship in Galveston.
I’m
traveling to a Quickfoot tournament outside of my state
association's geographic area.. What do I need to do?
All “travel teams” need to check
with their state association or visit the Quickfoot
"Travel Information" page regarding travel
rules. State associations require an application to
travel as well as a copy of the Quickfoot tournament
sanctioning form (found on each city page and the forms
page). Quickfoot requires a copy of the approved application
to travel. The sanctioning document can be found on
the specific city page below the online registration
link. Please plan ahead when traveling as some state
associations charge late fees if not given enough notice.
How can I assure I will be able to get a tournament T-shirt?
Quickfoot tournament T-shirts are available for
sale at all tournament sites for $14 in limited quantities.
However, you can save $6 per shirt by pre-ordering your
T-shirt as part of the T-shirt Registration Package.
My players aren’t registered with any association, can they still play in tournaments?
This all depends on the rules of the hosting association. With some associations (North Texas Adults and Oklahoma), any player can temporarily register with the hosting association. If this is the case, a fee determined by the association will be required for each player. For other associations (South Texas and North Texas Youth) you must register through a club or association prior to the tournament.
What if there is bad weather forecasted for the upcoming tournament?
The decision of possible postponement or cancellation
of a tournament will usually be made the day before
the event (Friday). Quickfoot does NOT cancel tournaments
because of cold, heat, etc. Tournament schedules could
be rearranged and/or games be shortened in the event
of bad weather the day of the tournament. Updates will
be posted on the voice message at 972-552-3800. You
may not be contacted personally with this announcement.
What
is the registration deadline for the tournaments?
10 days prior to the event date or post marked
15 days prior if mailing in your registration.
Why should I pre-order my T-shirts and How do I do it?
The biggest reason is the $6 discount you will
receive for pre-ordering your T-shirts, and another
reason is that all pre-ordered t-shirts are personalized
with the tournament city and date on the front. Once
you pre-order, your shirts will be waiting for you when
you arrive at the tournament. The best way to pre-order
is to do it online at www.quickfoot.com when you make
your team reservation, or print, fill-out, and fax a
t-shirt order form. Please write legibly. The Quickfoot
is not responsible for errors due to illegible writing.
You can view the shirt on the website before pre-ordering.
Shirts must be ordered the 10 days before the tournament.
What is considered a "Guest Player"?
A player not currently on your outdoor team roster.
In the circumstances that there is no limit to the number
guest players allowed for a particular Quickfoot City
Qualifier, you can assemble a team of your choosing
from any number of registered players. Reference the
correct city page for the rules on guest players for
that Quickfoot City Qualifier.
How do I know how many guest players I can have on my team?
The rule for tournaments in North Texas is only
adult teams may have guest players. Youth teams must
be made from a single outdoor roster. For South Texas,
Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana there is no limit
to the number of guest players you can use.
How
can non-USYSA or non-USASA teams participate?
The rules are different for each State Association.
Please reference the rules section
of this website for more details.
Where can I find medical release forms, USASA adult player registration forms, etc...?
All possible forms needed for Quickfoot events
are located on the forms section of this website in
PDF format. You will need the Adobe Acrobat Reader to
view these forms. If you do not have Acrobat, you can
download it for free at www.adobe.com
How are game scores reported?
The referee will provide the winning team with a score card that must be turned in immediately to the Quickfoot administration area.
How are yellow and red cards reported?
The referee turns in a report to the referee assignor on duty who takes appropriate action.
Can
a goal keeper slide in a Quickfoot tournament?
Yes, a goal keeper can slide to protect themselves while involved in a play for possession of the ball.
Can
a team add players to their roster after they have qualified
for the Championship?
Yes, Each team is allowed two substitutions from
the city qualifying event to the championship. Substitution
request forms must be submitted two weeks prior
to the Championship and must be approved by the Tournament
Director.
