in points then the team winning the game between them shall
advance first between those two teams.
- If more than 2 teams are tied in points,
then goal differential amongst JUST THOSE TIED TEAMS shall be

there are two teams to compare head to head.
- Goal differential for teams involved in a
shootout shall be the final score in regulation for the team
losing the shootout and the final score in regulation PLUS ONE

goals for that game is 7.

On Wednesday afternoon (3/10/10)the USCC committee
discussed the 2010 rule changes for the event based on what
USA Water Polo has implemented for NJOs and other
events. What we have put together is a compilation of the
feedback we have received as well as what we think is best
for the Cal Cup/USCC events.
Effective immediately these will govern the remainder of
the cal cup season and be used for Cal Cup State Finals and
2010 USCC's.
Please read carefully as there are things you need to do
if your player do not fall within the rules as well as to
verify grade for 14/18 & unders when it applies Also we
have waivers for college players or 19 year old still in
12th grade.
