The Youth Board approved the Cup Committee's three recommendations for rules to be added to the Youth Division Playing rules as a foundation for future State Cup competitions.

1. The State Cup will always use playing groups of four (4) teams up to three (3) playing groups.  The top four (4) teams from the previous year's State Cup shall be seeded according to finish, contingent upon proof of team continuity.  (All other teams will play single-elimination games play-in matches for the remaining group-play openings.)

2. State Cup will use the tiebreakers used by the Region I Championships.  Group play points will include 3 points for a win, 1 point for a tie, 0 for a loss, 1 point for a shutout.

3. U12 and U13 teams will be required to play in a PA West Soccer sanctioned league during both the fall and spring playing sessions to be eligible for entry into the State Cup.
