United States Adult Soccer Association organized activities are suspended until at least April 30, 2020. Activities include, but are not limited to:
- USASA National Cup competitions

This decision has been made in accordance with guidance from state governors and public health professionals.
We recognize that this decision may impact member's planning and programming. The decision was made in the interest of ensuring the health and safety of the adult soccer community and the community at-large.
USASA advises member organizations to review their programming schedules and follow all guidelines and instructions from local and state authorities to assess the risks and benefits of postponement or cancellation of upcoming activities. Please be aware local activities taking place between now and April 30, 2020 will not be sanctioned by USASA.
The USASA office will be closed until at least Wednesday, April 8. All staff will be working remotely and may be reached via email to serve our membership.
USASA is committed to the health and well-being of its players, coaches, staff, and families. We'll continue to actively monitor the situation. As always, we encourage players and families to adhere to CDC recommended hygiene procedures on and off the field, including:
- Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
- Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth.
- Don't shake hands during or after a game.
- Stay home when you are sick.
- Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue, then throw the tissue in the trash.
- Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces using a regular household cleaning spray or wipe.
- Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after going to the bathroom; before eating; and after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
- If soap and water are not readily available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol. Always wash hands with soap and water if hands are visibly dirty.
