The Manchester City tournament at the Polo Fields was a hot mess today. It sure seemed like someone other than Surf Cup Sports was running things. It was a disorganized mess. Entrance to the facility and parking was nothing short of an absolute disaster. By 10am it was taking approximately 45 minutes to get from the turnoff into the facility to a parking space. Absolutely no traffic control or anyone to direct you to parking. There were numerous players and parents that got out of their car because it was faster to walk. Porta potties were only in the parking lot so if you were on a field on the south side of the complex it was a hike just to go to the bathroom. Delayed game start after halftime waiting for players to return from the bathroom and the long lines. The new entry way onto the fields would be nice except for the prison like fence around it that blocked easy access to food vendors and made for a big detour to get from the west fields to the east fields. Several other problems including a lack of trash cans. Hopefully Surf Cup Sports fixes things for Sunday. I also hope the weatherman is wrong and it doesn’t rain. That dirt parking lot become a mud pit when it rains.
