AYSO teams may participate in non-AYSO tournaments providing they follow AYSO National Policy Statements
AYSO National Policy Statements - Article 2
2.1 Participation in Non-AYSO Tournaments and Games.
A Regional Commissioner may sanction participation of his Region or teams from his Region in a non-AYSO tournament, game, parade or other event with the prior approval of the Area Director, but such Regional Commissioner is responsible for advising participants of the then applicable rules relating to Soccer Accident Insurance (SAI) and liability Insurance coverage and their limitations.
And the AYSO Reference Book uses this definition and reminder:
NON-AYSO TOURNAMENT: A tournament hosted by a group that is not affiliated with or registered in AYSO. AYSO teams competing in a non-AYSO tournament must still adhere to AYSO Rules and Regulations, including AYSO roster maximum sizes, the requirement that all participants play at least half of every game, positive coaching, etc. “Travel” papers – or permission documents—often are required by non-AYSO tournaments, and those forms are also available for download at www.ayso.org.
Participation in non-AYSO events may limit the application of the SAI. Additionally, the AYSO National Office cannot intervene in resolving disputes regarding tournament fee refunds, referee deposit refunds, etc.
