All adverse decisions by the League are subject to appeal to a higher authority. However, the MCYSA decision will stand unless a higher authority reverses the MCYSA action. If you wish to appeal a MCYSA decision, you should contact your North Area Commissioner.

You should be aware that USYSA rules provide that:

• No official, club, league, team, coach, referee, player, or their representative may invoke the aid of the Courts of any State or the United States without first exhausting all available remedies within the appropriate soccer organizations. 

• Any party who seeks the aid of the courts shall be subject to the sanctions of suspension and fines, and shall be liable to the MCYSA for all expenses incurred by the MCYSA and its officers in defending each court action, including but not limited to the following: 

1. Court Costs
2. Attorney's fees
3. Reasonable compensation for the time spent by MCYSA officers in responding to and defending against allegations in the action, including responses to discovery and court appearance.
