MFA's March Madness

MFA’s March Madness was established in 2019 with one mission: to give teams quality pre-season full-field turf competition.  For 5 years, this was organized as a traditional tournament structure where teams played a minimum of 3 games on one weekend.  The problem is that Michigan weather is unpredictable, and two weekends of competition have been cancelled due to this unpredictable weather.

Going forward, MFA’s March Madness will have a new look, but with the same goal: get teams as many pre-season games as they desire!  Now, instead of being limited to one weekend, we are organizing games across the entire month of March—giving teams the flexibility to create the schedule they desire, and games can be played as the weather permits.  All match-ups will be officiated by US Soccer referees and all communications will be organized by West Michigan Soccer’s full-time staff.

 

DETAILS:

Available Dates – games can be played on any of the following weekends:
  • March 1-3
  • March 8-10

  • 4v4: $75
