Welcome to the 2010 CR3 Season

At long last, the fall 2010 CR3 schedule is posted below (and also in calendar form at the bottom of this webpage). If any teams would like to reschedule a match for one of the available reschedule weekends, you are free to do so and work that out yourselves. Just make sure you notify your TU rep(s) as soon as possible of the change. Additionally, we strongly encourage all home teams to offer to host your opponents to save on travel costs, especially when the visiting team has a long way to travel.

Other important news:

• Welcome to the Village Lions and Providence Women! Both teams made the decision after much success in the DII ranks to step up to the challenge of DI, and we are happy to have you as part of the CR3.
• There have been some updates in the CR3 Competition Guidelines/Contacts document - including team contacts as well as some league policies: B side match requirement, match cancellations due to extreme weather, forfeits and withdrawals, and window for match kick-offs based on visiting team travel). PLEASE take a moment to read through, as one or more of these changes probably affects your team.
• Any teams interested in hosting the CR3 Playoffs on Oct 16-17 should indicate that interest to their TU rep asap. We are finalizing a bid packet and will send out early this week.
• One of our TU reps, Jessa Giordano, is on the Women's Premier League Expansion/Promotion/Relegation Committee. Please reach out to Jessa at jessagio@gmail.com with your ideas, concerns, etc. A press release will be going out soon to all women's club teams in the USA announcing the formation of this committee and its membership.
