I have yet to see a Facebook/INSTA post that ever lists flight.
It's usually "WINNERS OF SURF CUP SO PROUD OF OUR LADIES"
Then I scratch my head and they won the raffle soccerlocco does for gear. Every. Single. Time

LMAO. That's right, just walk around like your with the DA or flight 1 groups, nobody will know the difference.

My dd's team won the thanksgiving surf challenge flight 2 and they were awarded the same champion sweatshirt as the flight 1's. Shoot, you're not going to see me announcing that it's only a flight 2 champion. Lol.

Do you know whether this applies to Surf Cup this year? Anyone know? The GDA season doesn't start until September, so I'm curious whether the DA only brackets are required for the summer tournaments. I didn't see anything on the Surf website that suggests that there are DA only brackets. Maybe someone has a link?

The jacket- the beloved jacket !
 
I am going to date myself but it used to be the coolest walking through the tunnel at the POLO fields before it became a mud pit. Music blaring, energy high. The sign above you...it was very cool!
Surf Cup sports always does an amazing job.

You are not the only one that remembers those days....
 
We only got 1 year at the polo fields. It felt almost magical for our little girls. It's still a good event, but not the same.

DeAnza will be pushing their best players to the Thorns with this partnership, but since their best players already followed Deza to the Earthquakes, the Thorns DA will be basically DeAnza's former 2nd team players.

Actually, the Thorns DA 04's will be predominantly last year's Earthquakes 04's and their coach.
 
Looks like DA brackets play July 28-Aug 1 to accommodate one day break after three games. ECNL (and other non-DA) play within those dates as well.

Other than subbing rules the major difference noted was the 10-minute difference in game length between, for instance, the u18 DA (45 minute periods) and ECNL (35 minute periods). Twenty minutes difference IMHO is a significant time difference when trying to "further evaluate" new talent? If I were ECNL I would probably have a discussion with Surf Cup admin and seek to get the game-length-times on par with DA.

These should be 8/5 - 8/7, the week after DA. And why is anybody still using the U-8 through U-19 system anymore? I hate that extra click to see if my dd's team is U-13 or U-14! Lol

Ahhhhh....I see where the confusion is:

Boys & Girls Non USSDA flights

U15 – U19
July 29-31

Boys & Girls Non USSDA flights

U10 – U14
August 5-7

Now we good
