Sadly, this is not an isolated case. I know of three other Tampa Bay area teams that have been disqualified from this event: U15G from Manatee Magic, U14B from New Tampa and U14B from Azalea. All violated either the max roster number or exceed the max number of roster moves (5 allowed). Every year teams get DQed from State Cup. As a club you have to have your registrar well versed in the rules. FYSA does not bend in this case. Knowing that this is a zero tolerance situation, either change the computer programs so that it will not allow you to exceed the stated roster max or make sure your registrar knows the rules.
