Really strange behavior huh? A number of them dont even have youth soccer players in their home apparently which makes the behavior even more odd.

Really strange behavior huh? A number of them dont even have youth soccer players in their home apparently which makes the behavior even more odd.
Look, Lavey doesn’t come here with facts. He/she comes here with insults every time someone points out that now is not a good time to hold a convention, or that Surf AZ is going to have far weaker teams than Surf Cup usually does.
Happy9 came with a fact: ICU capacity is at 0% in socal. That is a fact.. Lavey came here to call people sheep. That is an insult, which is different from a fact.
It also adds nothing to the discussion. People are not going to pay $1000 to catch the ‘rona in ‘zona just because some Surf troll calls them sheep.
Is Tom Hanks alive or not?Hi again. You got confused. EOTL was spewing the QAnon stuff. I only said fuck you.
I was thinking about that this morning. They dont have kids so who might they be? Coach Doc? Yes sir, that's who we all been talking to. I've tried to tell all you I came on here to take on the Docs. Only TB told me he never has been on the forum. All the others come here all the time. I just dont know if I'm talking to this Doc or that Doc or that coach. Now everyone understands who is on this socal soccer forum message board. No one comes to a youth soccer forum without kids in the game, right?
I think some of them maybe had kids who played briefly years ago but never developed into potential college level players. They were probably shunned by some of the well known teams at well known clubs and now the parent Carrie's that grudge with them wherever they go and the easiest way to act on that grudge is on a soccer forum posting baseless nonsense over and over again to trash talk that particular club or tournament. These are like high school kids who weren't quite good enough for varsity and decades later they can talk endless crap from their keyboard inside their safety bubble. Some of the strangest adult behavior that I have observed in quite awhile and they do it 24/7 on here. Same little group. They show up in all the different forum sections trash talking soccer anything.
I will admit Im here 24/7 and that is not healthy. I will take advise from 46 and take a chill pill later today. I think we have a few Docs and a coach or two for sure. No doubt in my mind. I promised not to share PMs with others on here and I wont. But man, they hate me is an understatement. Parents of kids who didnt make the top A team do not act like this. Plus, they dont have kids and they always say, "parents need to do this and that." Not "us parents." You see the difference? I'm telling you, most of these coaches cant stand you all. They just want your money and then put pressure on Susie to ball 24/7, do privates with them, pay insane amounts for per diems and spend more and more so your kid can get yelled at? Oh please, no way and, "dont date boys because boys cause problems."
I have to admire your ability to stay on message. Screw the facts, pivot to nonsensical insults.
516 older teams as of today seems to be ok with with attending if the college tracking site is current?
The girls groups overall have 276 teams vs 240 for the boys with 76 for G17 (04) alone.
When the schedules come out well could be some surprises and people walking back our club is not participating comments but will see.
But, but, but one of the experts posted there were only 175 teams in the tournament? You mean he is wrong?

I believe this number was posted for youngers not olders. TBH I can never understand why would any younger team pay so much money to go to Surf.
I believe the correct number is 165 for the youngers. But it's Friday and those numbers can go up or down..
The older's number of 516 teams was posted by Surf on their website around a week ago with no change since it was posted.
The almost doubling of cases and deaths in California happened a couple of days ago on Dec 16 per Worldometer ,
I would like to see Surf's updated numbers .
BTW the youngers numbers were updated yesterday.
@dad4, you seem like one of the good guys that I don't always agree with. You know most of the posts here are bullshit. Nobody knows what is going to happen in Zona and nothing you say is going to stop people from paying $1000s to play. Sheep. Whatever. Hardly worth getting triggered over. I wish we were going. Surf is a big event on the calendar every year, and plans are always made to be sure nothing conflicts with it. Probably no different than everyone else here with kids. I'm glad our team pulled out. After all, it is xmas, and soccer can monkey fuck a futbol this time of year unless its local and convenient. However, I don't agree with the govt interference and get annoyed at the badgering people get for attending. I'm sure @Lavey29 does too.
@Lavey29, I hope you have a great time and share with us how it went. I just pray it goes off without a hitch for the obvious reasons. And if it does go sideways, soccer will be the poster child for the no youth sports movement and in a way you will have to carry some of the weight for the 2021 season getting hosed.
66 olders teams dropped out according to correspondence and they where accepting 50 additional teams earlier in the week.
Now that the 16th deadline has passed will see how it shakes out but 450-500 teams is a still a lot.
Since the title of this thread is on refunds , here is the Surf policy on refunds posted on the Surf wed site for olders as of a couple minutes ago.

Submitting an application does not guarantee acceptance; Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a governmental order cancels the event or prevents your team from traveling to the event, you will receive a full refund minus any credit card processing transaction fee.

This is what your pal refers to as a Straw Man argument. Your shit is as weak as his.
Well stated...
Ain't that the truth.
Yes, the location and cost may not be the best for youngers but kids just want to get out and play. I agree though the tournament is geared more for older teams hence the college coach presence.

I understand why olders are going and why it’s so important for the parents who need them to get a scholarship. They are willing to sacrifice getting covid to get a chance for some financial relief for college. College is very expensive and they must be in a tough situation. Think about the fact that these kids have been training for years and now they finally are ready to showcase their skills but this covid hit and eliminated a full year of opportunities to get in front of college scouts.
I shake my head to see these ulittle kids 7-10 year old teams going. There is no value and no logical reason to go. Some say, my kid just wants to play..... so what! Suck it up and wait or have them kick the ball against other kids in a backyard.
