It used to be that teams from their own city or club played each other in Norco and smirked. Couldn't we have just done this at night during practice or even on the weekend without wasting gas, driving an hour and waiting in traffic, paying parking fees, etc. Now the same thing happens in Arizona? This is parental desperation.

As a parent who participated in Surf Cup for over 5 years ((winning two and making three finals)), this is the best run tournament. I sincerely wish all the teams a great time. I would go and I say that with love & support.

That’s an incredible record across 5 years! Same team each year?

Great question. Man, I can;t get anything past you bro. I miss spoke and embellished a little with 5 finals. It was four finals. One win with Blues and one with Surf. Showcase games with no knock out games sucked!!!

I stand corrected again. I'm getting old fellas and had to look at all the medals...lol. I think she only won two with Blues when Surf was all about the best of the best. We lost in the finals with Surf twice ((she only played in one of them)) and then hopped back to Blues and lost in da finals to Crossfire. The best of the best were not in our bracket though. I think we were in the ECNL silver or black group. So now I think she went for the threepeat and lost out?

Surf Cup Finals
2014- Winner
2015- Winner
2016- Loss to Barcelona ((MVLA)) I believe
*2017- Loss to Quakes. However, my goat stayed home and rested from 16 months of chasing the US Youth Championship, which they won.. Her team got back like on Thursday from Frisco and had to play the next day at Surf Cup and she was so tired. Played her little heart out. She did miss out on all the TV cameras. SD loves youth sports and all the girls got to go the morning news show for the big win for the city. It was so cool :)
*2018- Loss to Cross Fire but maybe doesn't count as true finals because not GDA only bracket?
*2019- Showcase only format, no tournament which sucked
 
Here are the non-Surf Socal clubs that are sending more than 1 team, ie sending more than just "that one team with the psycho parents":

Albion - 5 teams
Slammers - 5 teams
Blues - 5 teams
Strikers - 4 teams
TFA - 4 teams
FC Golden State - 3 teams
Arsenal - 2 teams
Rebels - 2 teams
City SC - 2 teams

That ain't a lot of LA/Ventura/IE.

Jimmy, this happens every year. Jealousy is the root cause of all this. Face's team was left out again most likely and now he wants to ruin it for you. I had coach get all mad because we guess play with another team. The Doc wrote email to all the parents in the club all because my goat left her pin. He was saying no more guesting allowed and my goat got out by chance and no one and he means no one is allowed to leave the family during the season to guess with another soccer family.
 
It's that time again -- time for your Surf Cup 2020 proposition bets!

As always, all bets have action unless one or more events is cancelled, in which case all bets are refunded.

Over/unders:
  1. Number of referees and Surf Cup tournament officials to test positive for Covid before January 14: O/U 1.5
  2. Number of 1-0 forfeits from team no-shows: O/U 2.5
  3. Number of post-tournament headlines in Arizona newspapers before January 14, of a parent of a player testing positive: O/U 1.5
Who will have more?
  1. Total number of clean sheets in the tournament, vs. number of family arguments Dec 27-28 that contain the words "I knew we shouldn't have come!". For action, a 1-0 forfeit does not count as a clean sheet. Clean sheets -150 / Arguments +135
  2. Total score of the 2020 Alamo Bowl, played December 29, vs. total score of all Surf Cup finals December 29. In the event of the Alamo Bowl being cancelled due to Covid, all bets will be refunded. All finals -10.5 -110 / Alamo Bowl +9.5 -110
  3. Total goals plus yellow cards in the Chelsea-Aston Villa match December 28, vs. number of Hawaiian teams who show up to Surf Cup. Goals + cards -1.5 -110 / Hawaiians +1.5 -120
  4. Total goals scored in all Surf Cup games December 29, vs. total number of "kids don't spread covid" posts on the forum December 29. Posts even -110 / Goals scored even -110
And a special multi-team parlay:
  • Choose as many states from this list as you want: Texas, Washington, Utah, Nevada, New Mexico, Georgia, Colorado, Oklahoma, Illinois
  • The total number of goals by teams from the states that you choose must exceed the total number of Orange County covid deaths-per-100k-residents as documented by the LA Times.
  • All 9 states goals exceed the deaths-per-100k: -450 / 8 states goals: -300 / 7 states goals: -250 / 6 states goals: -180 / 5 states goals: -120 / 4 states goals: +110 / 3 states goals: +150 / 2 states goals: +200 / 1 states goals: +700
Enjoy and good luck to all!
