Just curious what games are starting to be cancelled? I know Nomads is cancelled. Desert Super Cup is a go for now. AZ state league games are being played and AZ teams travelled to Heritage Cup.

There are girls ECNL games scheduled in AZ for the weekend - I don't know if those have been cancelled.. The GA is done for the season. The AZ GA teams will enter Surf Cup, if it happens. I do think Surf Cup is vulnerable to cancellation. It's a terrible time of the year to have a tournament.

btw, thought it was totally crazy that GA teams played multiple games every weekend. yeah they got games in, but negatively affects the quality of play and the heatlh of the players---not to mention the sanity of parents driving to AZ and NV every weekend. young kids can handle it sure, but high school bodies cannot. What was your experience?

Why is it a terrible time of year for a tournament? Youth soccer in Arizona seems to be safely managed very well. In fact youth soccer and other sports seem to be going along fine in numerous states around the country except for places like Ca. Ny, Nj Mi, etc...hhhmmmmm...I wonder why that is?

Let them kids play...

Arizona and NV parents are used to driving almost every weekend to CA, it's what they do every year. This year is obviously an anomaly. There are only 2 GA and 2 ECNL teams in AZ.

Maybe there is some merit to playing only one game over the weekend if fitness and health is a concern. Long drive to play one game (AZ teams do it all the time when the leagues can't schedule two games). Two games for the weekend is the norm for both leagues.

My point has nothing to do with the safety of soccer being played in the state. There will not be fields available in FEB for surf. Do your research on soccer in AZ during late JAN and all of FEB. Large tournaments every weekend. Surf will not have access to fields. If they don't get it in when it's currently scheduled or at the latest 1 week later, they will not get it in.

Its the travel, lodging and the eating out situation which is the problem with crossing state lines for a meaningless soccer game in a pandemic.

Haven't even touched on idiotic parents who have the urge to hit the bars and casinos selfishly.

So yes, nothings wrong with soccer this time of year other then the fucked up thought process of some parental units.

That might be why there are rumors that they will limit the amount of accepted teams even with record number of entries which is another rumor I heard

The problem is fields, there will be none for Surf to host games.

Each of these tournaments follow the same footprint. Reach 11 is just one location that is used. They weave in scottsdale sports complex and other city complexes in order to get all of the games in.

Where there's a will, there's a way. One thing about soccer since it's a world sport, different regions always go out of their way to help or accommodate other regions. We have had some memorable experiences out of state and in state as well traveling to northern ca for tournaments. They will find a way to have fields to play.

I think they got lots of entries due to the lack of available play during the season obviously. They have to limit to what their resources will allow them to accommodate to. I also suspect they will try and keep the quality of play elevated based on their knowledge of teams and clubs.

Sorry watching kids smile and enjoy the sport they love is not meaningless to me.

Peter and his sword were hard core back in the day. He was a find fisherman too :)

Who’s Paul ?

He was a hard core Jew named Saul before he became Paul :) A great zealot for his cause. Stupid, uneducated sinners were following this Christ guy named Jesus and Saul was not all too happy. He would go around killing folks from "The Way." Had them killed and fed to wild animals and wild bats. Then he had a chance encounter with the One on the road to Damascus. Crazy stuff!!!
