Roster sizes are firm. We do not make exceptions to the roster size for any age group, nor for roster requirements regarding coed teams.
Teams with more interested players than roster spots may visit our Player Portal.
J1 – WILL THERE BE PRE-ORDERED MERCHANDISE?
Pre-order merchandise is not offered. However, official NASSC merchandise will be available at multiple locations during the event. T-shirts, bags, hats, bottles, balls and more will be featured – shop early for the best choices. Any of our white headquarters tents along the beach will have information where to find our NASSC official gear vendors.
I2 – WHERE CAN I PARK?
During events as big as ours resort area parking is always a challenge. Participants staying at our hotels are generally offered a parking space with each room. Check with your hotel. We recommend carpools and allowing plenty of time to find parking and walk to your fields.
You may wish to visit our City’s site for more info about VB, transportation, and parking in the resort area. Many common transport options are available in the area and may also help you avoid parking and traffic worries.
I1 – WHERE WILL MY FIELD BE?
We update our map online just as soon as we have the best idea what the current year will look like. Starting ins 2022, our age group layout will look different than in prior years. Also, keep in mind Mother Nature changes the beach throughout the year and we will adapt our layout to the beach as well as the numbers of teams we have attending the event. In the meantime, the Fields Map, found under Tournament, is a good guideline.
H1 – WHEN WILL SCHEDULES BE RELEASED?
Preliminary schedules will be posted online approximately 2 weeks prior to the event. However, FINAL schedules will be posted the Friday night prior to competition. Be sure to scroll down to see full schedules. CAUTION: using a search engine to find schedules can often lead you to schedules from prior years and may not reflect correct information for this year’s event.
G2 – DOES MY TEAM HAVE TO CHECK-IN IF THE ROSTER WAS DONE ONLINE?
** The roster you see on your team dashboard is UNOFFICIAL **
NASSC official rosters will include only team members who completed their online material prior to the roster lock date.
Only team members (including coaches, players, and managers) who completed online materials are eligible to participate.
Participants rostered with multiple teams must complete materials with each team.
Teams who compete with ineligible team members may be disqualified. No refund will be given.
G1 – WHEN & WHERE IS TEAM CHECK-IN?
All teams must check-in online prior to the event. Visit the Team Manager page for updated check-in information, to be posted prior to the event.
F6 – WHY ARE PARTICIPANTS ASKED TO BOOK ANY HOTEL ROOMS THROUGH EVENTCONNECT, EVEN WHEN BOOKING A SINGLE ROOM?
NASSC is a Stay-To-Play event using EventConnect, a free service to our participants and available for booking both individual rooms as well as teams blocking rooms for multiple players. Use of EventConnect keeps team fees lower from year-to-year and directly benefits the soccer community when NASSC is credited for the room you stay in.
When comparing rates online, ensure that you are looking at a cancellable group rate over the same event dates. Also ensure that all the same amenities are being offered, as breakfast is not always included in the rates online compared to the EventConnect rate, and not all room rates are quad occupancy. If you send a screenshot or direct link of the hotel with the lower price via email to support@eventconnect.io, EventConnect can look into this and reach out to the hotel. Visit our Travel page for more information.
F7 – WILL THE DEPOSIT FEE BE APPLIED TO THE COST OF THE HOTEL ROOMS BOOKED?
The deposit is paid at the time of reservation and is included in the room rate so you pay the remaining balance at the time of check-in. For example, if the rate is $100/night with a $5 deposit included in that $100 rate, you will pay $5 when you make the reservation to secure your room and the remaining balance of $95 at the hotel. These rates, with the deposit included, are still below comparable online group rates.
F4 – I DO NOT SEE ENOUGH ROOMS AVAILABLE OR I PREFER A DIFFERENT BED TYPE THAN THOSE LISTED
If you do not see enough rooms available, you can request additional rooms by contacting EventConnect. Your request will hold the number of rooms currently available and put in a request directly to the hotel for the remaining inventory. When the remaining inventory is approved or declined, you will receive a notice from the hotel informing you of this. You can reach out by email at support@eventconnect.io or by phone at 1-888-723-2064.
