2007 DA

Man City will be a great place to predict success. Also, three 07 to-be DAs are playing SuperCopa: Legends, TFA and Arsenal. As it has been said, TFA is a great team. Legends Pre-Academy went 10-1-1 in F1, only losing to Slammers. Arsenal's 07 DA-to-be has played/still playing the entire season as a 2006 DA U-12 team so they should be interesting returning. The U11 Bracket at SuperCopa is predominately U12DAs to-be so that will be also interesting to see how those 3 teams (plus La Esperanza) fare against some of the best 07s.

@RedDevilDad...plus Cerritos Memorial.

CAS represented very well this age group last year, good luck to all the teams.

Surf Cup will also be interesting. I think that will have a good showing of DA-to be teams as well. Waivers will have been signed by then so recruiting will be done for a bit...
 
Premier SuperCopa brackets were posted today. Looks like a great tournament with many of the top teams, including 5 California teams (4 from Socal, 1 from Norcal)
 
What would the forum be if we can't have some predictions heading into the weekend...
Bracket A looks crazy tough to pass
Looking forward to some good soccer this weekend
 
Here are my predictions (but what to I know).. Let's hear more!

Bracket A - Group of Death 1A! Heat FC is a very good team, they've dominated Nevada and have been playing up in the 06 division this season. I remember reading many of the AC Brea 07s went to Galaxy, so I'm guessing they will be very strong. Rebels were the top Socal team last year, but I heard some players left. Surf DA B will be good, just don't think they can compete against the other 3. I can see any of the other 3 advancing. I'll go with Heat FC, LA Galaxy, Rebels, Surf, in that order.

Bracket B - Group of Death 1B! You have 2 top Socal teams, the #1 Norcal team, and #1 Arizona team. Don't know much about CCV Stars, but they are the top Arizona team. Heritage SC is the Norcal State Champions. Like Heat, they dominated in Norcal, and have been playing up in the 06s division. Surf DA will be strong. I have heard they got some new players so it'll be interesting to see how them play together. Then Total Futbol Academy, I haven't seen them play in a while, but there name speaks for itself. I think they are the clear favorite. The other 3 teams could finish in any order. I'll go TFA, Surf, Heritage, CCV, in that order.

Bracket C - Legends are good. They just won the Legends Classic, and looks like they picked up a couple studs. I don't know too much about Ole, except for a video on their youtube channel showing highlights from a scrimmage against LAFC. and they looked like a quality side. Not too familiar with Scottsdale. However looking at their results, they were at Vegas Cup and lost to Legends 14-0, and also lost to CCV Stars 5-0? Ouch! With SDSC, I don't know much about them. Not to take anything away from these teams, but this looks to be the weakest group, but who knows, i could be dead wrong lol. I think Legends are clear favorites. I'll go Legends, Ole, SDSC, Scottsdale.

Bracket D - Cencal Cosmos were Norcal State Cup Finalists last year, didn't do as well this year. Will be interesting to see how they do. Fram are a talented side. They have some wins against some great teams - ex Legends, and some losses against not so good teams. LAUFA are another talented side. They are another team I remember hearing about getting new players. SC Del Sol - another Arizona team! They haven't been to any other big tournaments that I can see, but they do have a 7-0 win against Scottsdale and multiple losses to CCV. I'll go LAUFA, Fram, Cencal, SC Del Sol.

Semifinals are TFA vs Legends and Heat FC vs LAUFA. I'll say TFA vs Heat FC in the final with TFA winning!

Very thorough! Agree, except replace Heat FC with LA Galaxy...TFA vs LA Galaxy in the finals, TFA coming out on top.

Isn't the Galaxy 07 Academy the former Rebels? I heard the whole (or close to the whole) Rebels 07 moved to the Galaxy Academy (and the TFA 08 moved to Galaxy Academy as well). If so, Galaxy may beat TFA based on their last season's record.
 
Really? Man, you never know who you work for.

I had heard that 6-8 players from AC Brea Green had moved to LA Galaxy...so with the Rebel players, they’ll be unstoppable.

Definitely some interesting results. Heat finished last in their bracket, but I think more surprising is that Legends and TFA placed 3rd in their brackets. Landscape may be changing at this age, but its way too early to read much into these results.

Agree....some interesting results indeed. I think the shift and movement of players to other clubs is definitely playing a role with teams either benefiting or hurting. What I do know that is certain is there is a ton of talent in this age group. There were several quality games/players all over the Polo Fields this holiday weekend. 2007 is stacked! Good luck to LA Galaxy, LAUFA, Ole, and Heritage in the semi's!
 
With the exception of the out-of-state teams which finished a combined 1-1-10, the competition at Man City was strong and the games close for the most part. Just based on the results for Cerritos, it appears that the Surf field was much stronger. In our Man City bracket any of 3 teams could have advanced and the same could probably be said for a couple other brackets.
 
LAFC completely dominated Cerritos, no doubt.

Surprised that TFA didn’t advance from round play and that Ole won its bracket by just parking the bus defensively and countering.

Definitely lots of talent in 2007.
 
Why on earth was Murrieta Surf’s DA team in the B bracket at Man City? Made it to the final though... but would have liked to see them play against the top teams.
 
What a great weekend of soccer for the 07 age group! I was able to watch many of the 07 games. So much talent! It was an exciting Championship game between LA Galaxy Academy and Heritage SC. 0-0 through 60 minutes. Went straight to pks and LA Galaxy pulled through to win.
