We played the So Cal Showcase last year..all of the four games were above 95 degrees. It was 100 degrees already at 10 am for the final. Miserable! So glad we aren't going this year.
Silverlakes Summer Showcase?

There must be/ should be a formula that combines heat and humidity, I think humidity is a huge contributor, stops the body from cooling itself.

At least you were able to play on Sunday last year. I think the teams at Surf would gladly have traded places with your team.

Also, when Great Park finishes adding their additional fields that might be the best ticket--- cooler, centrally located and the parking - entering/exiting will be better

Because it's a typical CaliKlines post in which he is pumping up the SilverLakes Showcase. #TrollingCaliKlines

What happened last year? Rain?

The last time Silverlakes and Surf were run concurrently, the Surf event ended prematurely due to rain. It will be hot, but not Palm Springs hot, in Norco. And, as soon as it is done, it will be nice for supporters to have the Silverlakes Fieldhouse available to escape the heat and have a cold one.

And isn't it a typical NoGoal post to cite everything wrong with Silverlakes and pump up Surf???

I think we all know who Cali and NoGoal support, but there is no getting away from the facts, it's fricken hot in the summer at Silver Lakes and it is a drive going to Surf, at least for us. We rarely stay in San Diego for the tournament as I don't mind the drive.
However, I was very disappointed with the coach/scout turnout at the legends show case in early june, even Blues Baker only had 1 or 2 watching and that was Sunday AM.

Because all of the many options within a couple minutes of the Surf facilities clearly suck. You are such a homer.

I live in the IE and my DD just played in the Legends SilverLakes College Showcase a couple of werks back. Sure nice fields and all, but there is nothing to do in Norco! I would take Oceanside over Norco any day of the week for a college showcase.

Sorry, to break the news to you, but my DD never played for Surf. So I am not biased as CaliKlines is to anything Legends or National League or now Girls DA.
It's a no brainer at the present time....Surf College Cup is a more prestigious college showcase than SilverLakes. Can that change of course with time, but to pump up SilverLakes after 1 year is asinine.

Sheriff Joe, are you posting about the college turnout at the Legends College Showcase at SilverLakes a couple weeks back? I was there for a WPSL game and I agree I didn't see many college coaches gracing many sidelines. I didn't want to post that until somebody else saw the same thing though.

For what it's worth, there weren't any relevant college coaches at MCC either.

Exactly, much more to do in the adjacent cities of Oceanside with Carlsbad and Del Mar vs Norco with Ontario, Corona and Chino Hills. The girls can always go cow tipping, if they are feeling adventurous.
