As far as I understand it, they can't schedule each round until the previous round has been complete...especially in the situation where the home team has to be determined by the previous week's game...i.e. JDF/VW Beavers winner facing ZGoda...Winner of JDF/VW Beavers will be the home team on the weekend of Feb 18, 19, 20....Then you have to look at all of the other cup schedules and potential field conflicts (and weather apparently now) before they can schedule the games....In the 8 years I have been in the VISL I have never seen a cup schedule fully complete before it even starts...You have to go week-by-week unfortunately, but the league has been good about making sure the schedule is updated almost immediately.

Yes well we already have an opponent and will be the away team once again. I see other games have been scheduled for the same weekend just missing 3... the team that awaits the first round winner is obvious to me but yeah it would be nice to get a heads up more than a week in advance! The other cup competitions have been scheduled... 1st and 2nd round!

So the games that are already scheduled are games where the home team has their own field and is simple to do ......for obvious reasons.
The games that are not scheduled and we are at the mercy of available fields from City or other municipalities - we have to wait and also see what else is happening and who else is playing.
We'll try to get you a home game next time......that way it would be another game scheduled far in advance.
This is Cup play - and is very standard.

Sorry, and the other obvious thing I have forgotten..........we could be snowed out or fields closed this weekend.
That would mean that a lot of games get pushed back a week and schedules would change again.
I'm thinking the next couple days are pretty important.......
