SILVER ELITE
Galaxy vs Sting ends at 0-0. Certainly a contrast in styles.
Looked like Rapids won 2-1 over Eagles

San Diego Surf 0-0 Albion
Great game that was played from 18 to 18 with good ball movement. I thought Albion had a slight edge in a good tight matchup.
We played them in their tournament in June. They are big and fast. Solid team that moves the ball quickly on the counter.Anybody got a scouting report on San Juan?![]()
Very talented team through the middle and fast all over the field. Thought they might slow down in the second half today, but they put in a full 60 minutes. Wish I could tell you how their goalie is, but blues didn’t test her at all today.Anybody got a scouting report on San Juan?![]()
Up until they expanded the tournament, most of Surf’s B teams did not make the cut.

Sounds like a very, shall we say, unbiased opinion? Ok, maybe not. Regardless, there are a bunch of teams in this age group that play good soccer and can beat any team on a given day.Surf 06s play the best soccer in the age group. Congratulations to San Juan, it was a very tough opponent but I think we'll get them next time.
As much as I would love to jump in and argue the merits of this team vs. that one, I recognize its a trap!
But, ‘good soccer’ can mean any number of things. It can be interpreted as ‘who wins the most’ or ‘who plays the best possession’ or ‘who scores the most goals’ or even ‘who keeps the ball on the ground.’ Regardless, there are lots of different styles, technical capability, speed, intensity, etc... equations that are all coming to visibility at the 06 age group now that we are playing full size field. And, I have to say, ‘IT IS AWESOME!’ These young ladies are bringing it and, from a sideline homer Galaxy dads perspective, having fun doing it!
Surf plays a beautiful game (from my vantage point), but so do Galaxy, Albion, Legends, Blues (Ill never admit this and probably delete this post in the near future so there is no evidence), that damned CO Rapids team and so many others! At the end of the day, these young ladies in Cal South are advancing at a rapid pace and have a bright future as futbolers and good sportswomen!
Surf Cup 18 is over and it was great! Thanks Surf, or Surf Sports or whatever financial entity allows for maximum profit and parking fees!![]()
