Tournaments

Soccer tournaments are held in various surrounding towns, usually on long Holiday weekends - Columbus Day in the fall and Memorial Day in the Spring.

Different town have varying styles of tournaments from competitive tournaments, where an outright winner is determined, to 'fun' tournaments where no game records are kept and everyone goes home a winner.

Often, it is customary in soccer tournaments to exchange patches with the opposing team during the post game handshake.  The Wayland Soccer Patch can be viewed here.

Tournaments are viewed as extra-curricular - above and beyond the regular soccer season.  They are the responsibility of the coach, or other adult volunteer.  While certain tournaments are sanctioned and approved by MYSA - Click here for the current MYSA list of upcoming tournaments, they are generally not governed by Wayland Soccer. 

If you are planning on participating in an area tournament and require patches, please call the WAYS number - (508) 647-1055 at least three weeks in advance.
