We thank everyone who applied to play this year. We wish we could have invited all who applied but we are limited by field space to only 24 teams. Selections were difficult but our goal was to create competitive yet balanced brackets at all age levels. Saying that as in all tournaments , teams drop out, should that happen, which it may, we will post the seed availablity at this location on the web site. If you would like to be considered please inform us of your intent to be placed on a waiting list. Teams and Schedules now posted.

What a great tournament with an incedible spirit and sportsmanship from all of the teams!  Even through the unfortunate weather on Saturday, Sunday was some of the best tournament play we have seen in many years. 

For the past several years the Tournament Comittee puts together a video retrospective on the weekend's events to capture the spirit of this tournament.  This year's video is to the song: Fight Song by Rachel Platten.

This year the First Responders Cup Tournament will provide '9/11 Helmet Decals' to all players participating in Tournament. Below is an image of the decal. We hope each player's helmet will have the decal proudly displayed during the tournament play.
