Read the items 1 to 20 below for more info.

1.The West Niagara boys tournament round is on May 8th and 9th 2010, and the girls tournament round is on May 15th and 16th 2010. All entry fees are $350 per team, with exception for mini-soccer which is $300 per team. OnLine Application for the 2009 West Niagara Invitational will be available after November 1st 2010. Please click on the OnLine Application in the menu on the left. You need to fully complete and save the said Application ASAP, with exception of the Program Roster. The Program Roster must be completed in the OnLine Application with final update allowed up to the end of day on April 20th. We will continue accepting entries and reservation requests as per info herein until a division is full and therefore closed. To reserve a spot in our 2010 tournament simply complete the said OnLine Application. I will reserve a spot for your team upon receipt of the automatic notification by the system. Some divisions may be full by mid March, so be sure to apply early.

2.All the teams that have reserved a spot before end of January are expected to mail me the entry fee cheque and the copy of OnLine Application so it is in my hands by end of February. If you have reserved a spot during the month of February, i will need your entry to arrive by March 15th. Reservations from March 1st onward will be accepted, if spots are still available, and the payment must be received within 10 days of the posted reservation. The teams that do not pay as per the noted info above, will be removed from the list of Accepted Teams. There will be no phone calls about why I did not receive the entry fee payment. Email me if you have a question, but please do not call me if you are one of the teams that have not paid as per the above noted dates.

3.I need the electronic information and the requested items in this order: 1.You may reserve a spot by just simply completing the OnLine Application, 2.You then need to MAIL me that Same Application with your entry fee by the date noted in Item 1 above, 3.You must coplete/update the OnLine Program Roster page before April 20th at the latest, 4.Team Roster, as well as the approved Travel Permit for participating teams that are not from Niagara Region, as well as your properly registered books, must be delivered to team registration when you are registering your team at the tournament headquarters (Lions Park in Lincoln). The registration will take place between 6:30pm and 8:30pm on a Friday evening, the day BEFORE YOUR TOURNAMENT, or on a Saturday morning AT LEAST an hour before your first scheduled game.

4.If you send me a post dated cheque after you have made a reservation, and the said cheque is payable after the dates noted in Item 1 above, then the next team(s) in line shall move up on the reservation list. We do accept post dated cheques, and provided that the division is not full on the date your cheque becomes cashable, there will be no problems. If it is full, then your team will be considered same as any other late application.

5.This tournament is invitational on a first come first served basis. It's true, we do allow up to 25% of the teams from a lower level to try their luck against top teams, if they feel up to it. However, once a spot has been reserved it is never taken away from the team. Sometimes teams reserve a spot and then are not able to fulfill their obligation on time. This is where the first team on hold has the opportunity to take the available spot.

6.The team from a higher level (as per info below that explains the difference between the two divisions) does not qualify for the Ontario Division (and/or a Golden Hoseshoe Division for U11 and 12 boys) as it is RESERVED for the lower level teams.

7.I will place a late registering team on hold, and I will only allow a maximum of 2 teams on Hold after a division is full. You do not need to send me a cheque, if your team is on HOLD, until I let you know that you have become one of the accepted teams, or after you look into MY SITE NEWS herein and see that your team is one of the 'accepted' teams.

8.Posting of "Accepted Teams" for 2008 tournament shall continue until a division is full. Go to MY SITE NEWS herein to view the list of teams that were accepted in any of the last 5 years. Please read the info on this page, and on this website, to familiarize your self with this tournament.

9.The "MY SITE NEWS" shall be updated at least twice a week after the end of January. If you are entering a team in our tournament, go there during the noted period to see the latest list of accepted teams for the upcoming 2009 tournament. I will continue loging the 2009 entries on the MY SITE NEWS page until a particular division is full. Full divisions will be noted as CLOSED and only two spare teams shall be added thereafter. Most divisions are anticipated to be full by the end of March.

10.Any competitive team can enter the North American Division. However, in age divisions from U14 to U18, only the teams below the top three League Levels - League Levels 4,5 and 6 (as per new OSA Pyranid For Play) are the ones eligable to enter the Ontario Division, as it is reserved for the lower level/division teams that are looking to compete in a similar level to their own (eg. the OYSL and Super Y League are Level 1 Leagues, the second tear OYSL covering each half of the province are Level 2 Leagues, and the top regional divisions are considered Level 3 leagues in the Golden Horseshoe for U14, U15, U16, U17 and U18 boys and girls. Level 3 and Level 4 Premier and Elite and Premier are considered the top two divisions for U12 and U13 in the CSL/CGSL and SRSL respectively (for the U11 we will consider the top 8 teams per league as being at the higher North American Division level. The next 8 must register for either North American or Ontario Divisions. The balance of U 11 teams may register for any of the available divisions). In the U9 and U10, the top teams from all clubs must register for the Elite and B and C level teams may register for Premier division and/or Elite division.

ALL 2006 GIRLS AND BOYS DIVISION RESULTS ARE POSTED ON THE HANDOUTS PAGE HEREIN.

A big 'Thank You' to all 412 teams that participated in the 2006 West Niagara Invitational Soccer Tournament. Further thanks to all those that helped running the event on May 6, 7, 13 and 14.
My apologies to those teams that had to be moved to spare fields on May 13th as fields SL1 and SL2 were shut down by the town's rec and parks department that morning due to the fields not recovering in time from a downpour on Thursday. Further apologies to boys teams that played 2 games May 6th on field BHE before we were notified that the nets were stolen during the night before the tournament.
I must express my disappointment at the boys teams that contributed to the 3 Special Incident Reports. They know who they are, and they will not be welcome to this tournament as long as I am involved.
Otherwise, the Weather Gods were good to us during the tournament, and most participants and supporters enjoyed them selves while getting reacquainted with some old friends and making some new ones.

John Miljan, Chair
West Niagara Invitational

The 2004 West Niagara Invitational has come to a successfull conclusion. The weather became a challenge with a huge downpour that started around 6am and contined to 8am on Sunday morning of the Girls tournament round, thus placing approximatelly 3cm of water on the fields in that short period of time. We met the challenge by playing ALL of the scheduled games.
Special thanks to participating referees, coaches and their staff, as well as all parents and participants for once again making this tournament a success.
Thanks also to Paul Gesse and Hamilton Sparta Sports Club, Ken Lamb and Niagara on the Lake Soccer Club, and Caroline Copeland and West Lincoln Soccer Club for their support during the tournament. Further thanks go out to members of Licoln Soccer Club Annette and Derek Carter, Michael Phillpot, Mandi Libera, Dave Reid and all others for their roles during the event.
Most of all, a big thank you to my wife Christine and daughters Paula and Zandra for many hours of work and for putting up with me during the demanding organizational period leading up to this event and during the event it self.
Until next year,
John Miljan
West Niagara Invitational Chair

____________________________________________

A big thank you to all participating Boys and Girls teams of 2002 West Niagara Invitational soccer tournament. With your support this tournament has grown into one of the largest youth soccer tournaments in Ontario.
Special thanks to Hamilton Sparta Sports Club, Niagara-On-The-Lake Soccer Club and West Lincoln Soccer Club for their support and use of their facilities.
Congratulations to all players, coaches and parents who showed sportsmanship and dedication during the tournament, specially those who braved all-day cold rain on Sunday May 12th during the girls tournament round. Thank you to the person who returned a lost wallet on Sunday, with credit cards and cash being untouched.
And, last but not least, congratulations to all 2002 tournament Champions, Finalists and semi-finalists.
Regards,
John Miljan
