National Cup 2017

It says the Southwest coach is Frank Lopez, so I don't know what's going on there. Did the team go with him to another club? Hard to imagine he put a new team together that could get into National Cup at the last minute. But it's the same guy everyone seemed to have a problem with, whether he was cheating or not.
Wow..that's crazy. Guess Cal South didn't suspend him?
 
Anyone know how advancement is going to go? 11 brackets totaling 44 teams is the facts we do know.

So... is it into a round of 32 which would equal top two from each bracket plus 10 of the 3rd placed teams (meaning all but 1 3rd place team advances)?

Or into round of 16 where there is only the bracket winner plus 5 second place teams (meaning 6 miss out)?

There was only 8 brackets last year so it was simple. I'm surprised they've allowed so many this year, there's a bunch of teams that have no business playing in National Cup, as harsh as that may sound, as the 05 age group still has all the top dogs.

Or third option... could it move to a second bracket stage like the 04s did last year?

That’s something else they don’t do. Geesh.:confused:
 
So this was posted on Facebook Soccer Announcment Board yesterday by I guess a TFA parent regarding the TFA SELA G05 Team. Guess this is why they withdrew....

“My 12 year old daughter was flipped off by her Ex-TFA G05 Southeast Coach (who is currently suspended by the club and Cal South for playing older girls with his 05 team for span of 2 years). My daughter was at restaurant having dinner and when she was on Snap Chat, captured this disturbing act by her Ex-coach flipping her off. This person has no business coaching girls youth soccer. I also want any Legend FC parents who played against his G05 team in the "Albion Tournament in San Diego" (July 2017), to know your team was victims to his cheating. That championship trophy he walked away with belongs to The Legends FC girls.”
 
Anyone know why TFA isn't in the 05 bracket? Gold level in CSL, not listed in Presidents.
Some of the TFA girls that were on that team that "withdrew" from national cup were playing Presidents cup this past weekend. One was Playing with Pats in San Bernadino...wonder if that is allowed???
 

Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I believe that team is now playing in National Cup in Bracket A under Southwest SC g05. I could be wrong though. It seems to be the same coach.
