Surf Cup - Get Your Refund Now

As of this evening its still on and the haters will be glued to their screens if it cancels, bummer but life will go on.

There will be some asshat starting another tournament each weekend BUT hey surfs the asshole , not the small guys that probably aren't even carrying the right insurance for your club. Twinkle land or whatever the fucks it called...get real.

then when the schedule is released you have even more shit talk about the teams attending (Happens every year, team apply and teams get denied)

and then lastly when the teams that win get crowned best of the best , you never hear the end of it . This year will be bad with insults but you know what its the dick head parents that care, the kids will be the opposite and proud and wear it like a badge of honor.

Each year is the same but with Covid its obviously more amplified,

but hey everyone has had fun breaking the rules scrimmaging- Area 51 or Oceanside or San Clemente or Mission Viejo or Riverside, come on you've all been scrimmaging but now its now bueno??? Imagine Scrimmaging has been off limits but your double standards mean it doesn't apply :eek:


Thats what's funny

The second they cannot be a part of something , they downgrade it,

You have people claiming theres no solid competition and they've never even won a championship at this tournament? What?


The hate toward Surf cup and their club is ridiculous , I love playing their club , they have good competitive teams in SD.

I hope its on , Imma watch my kids go out and ball up and play a game they love and almost treat like a job.

I will wear my mask, get take out and have the absolute best time while im there, I may even shop.

Im not breaking any laws, and the last person to order me around was my parents.

Suck it.


You know what's funny, this was supposed to be whether we thought, under the current environment, should the tournament happen. Would have been fine in SEP, except that AZ, and other league play was in full swing. Then it turns into accusations that everyone hates surf. Accusations of kids not making a surf team and parents becoming bitter. cooocooo indeed.
 
These post are full of kooks now , their all scientist, sideline coaches, managers of Ulittles pro players and dads of the next Mia. I feel like people from the Soccer announcement board have infiltrated this website

What's up with all the hate towards Surf? I've heard them compared today to Big Tobacco and a criminal syndicate, that's quite the hyperbole. I'm no Surf apologist and I make cracks about them all the time, but this venom is really odd. Is jealousy driving the hatred? Spurned from a tourney or team? I "hate" the Dodgers but I can respect what they've accomplished (buying a championship, ha, ha). Surf is certainly not for everyone, but you can't deny their success at developing teams (not players necessarily). Every year the local news has the Surf HS Senior ladies on and they each say where they're attending college. Pretty impressive.
I've never had an issue with Surf--15+ years of kids soccer in LA/OC and plenty of SurfCups--until several weeks ago when they made a business decision to prioritize profits over the health and safety of families and children, despite resounding medical advice to the contrary and now in defiance of state and local mandates--then promoting it under the guise of college scouting and kids needing to play. It's really a shame because this will tarnish their reputation for a long time...the club not willing to join the other CA clubs/teams/players/families in the worthy common goal of following state orders to suppress a health crisis. Nobody likes the mandates, but responsible companies do not willingly defy them, and do not encourage families and children to do the same. They are incapable (as are some posters on this thread) of looking at things without a soccer lens. That is disappointing and sad. At this point, if they cared about ethics and the welfare of California families, Surf would not allow ANY California teams to play in AZ, including their own. That's not jealousy. That's simply calling for doing the right thing.

Be honest Canada. Did any of your goats in the 15+ years take home a true top tier finals trophy? I think not and that is why you have so much jealousy? BTW, nice headline for a new thread. I disagree with most of your stuff but I like someone with opinions. Stay safe and I mean that.

You are absolutely the most small minded pussy this forum has ever seen. Dom needs to make an Off Topic 3 to deal with the passive aggressive pansy BS that you say every time you make an attempt to say something of meaning. CA has it's worst day of pandemic today, politics is politics, the poster is trying to tell you that what's happening all over the world right now, and in your backyard, is bigger than a few months off from soccer from your children who have been given poor instruction by an a parent incapable of providing enough leadership in leading them to do something else but defy state orders to attend... a soccer tournament, and meanwhile tell everyone else that it's fine to do it because a politician spoke out of both sides of his mouth.

And people ask why CA had its worst day in the pandemic, today. Because there are rules out there from government officials, but they don't apply to people like you. Apparently the disease that was partly eradicated on November 3 is still alive and well.
 
Anyone know which southern CA clubs are committed to play in Surf Cup (olders). Heard from a parent who's DD plays for Blues that they backed out due to a lack of competition. Today's the deadline to register and our club is considering it....
Likewise y for the younger any idea what team are in ? Or schedules ??
 
I just spoke to a friend of younger and they are making the trip. I had the choice before me in my little brain???????? Do I rain on my friends joy and excitement for Surf Cup in AZ and piss on his parade and make his drive that much worse? Or do I pump him up and make it sound like the best of the best will be playing? Think about that? We all have that choice, dont we? Dad? Happy, be honest? I told him it's the dam best tournament out there and over 450 of some of the best talent in the country will play. I told him my dd is threepeat surf cup champ, five time finalist and two time Thanksgiving Cup Champ and Man City champ. Bring home the gold I told him and nothing short of making it to the finals is good. His dd is all excited so go have fun and let the kids play.
Which younger club is that
 
New California Youth Sport guidance is giving those of you who made a bad choice up until now a second (actually third) bite at the apple to get your $$ back. It's only going to get worse by 12/27 and New Year's Day in AZ. But you won't hear that from Surf--they are Big Tobacco. We elder parents with multiple kids through the system keep trying to provide good advice (as does the medical community; f the politicians btw). Seriously though, just pull the ripcord on this one, get your money back and look for another tourney to play in March/April. Or, save the money and buy a bigger TV from Best Buy to watch the second half of EPL.
We are going. Will take necessary precautions… will not be eating in restaurants or malls etc, will be going straight to the field to play games and then staying at hotel with food brought in.
 
I asked my dd an honest Q last night. Only truth can be spoken I told her. No this or that or eyes shifting away. I asked, "if all the top teams from CA, WA, OR, TX, NV, AZ, CO, WY, ID, NM and the true "best of the best" were balling , would you ball?" She said 100% she would have Bday party the week after. However, with all the top teams from Nocal and Socal skipping ((minus the Blues)), it's not worth it. I want Surf Cup to happen with the top top best best teams. That's us in a nut shell. That's why I got all mad when the first year of the GDA had no playoffs for the 04s and they were going to forbid HS Soccer for public school kids and split socal into two competing leagues.
My son who is a U 17 said the opposite… He’s itching to play so badly he doesn’t care About the competition… He just wants to have fun playing. That’s what having to practice 6 feet apart for nine months does to you.
 
Which younger club is that
I swore not to share the team. Dad, EOTL and his twin bro, The Long Game, are here to keep an eye on us, call us names and rebuke us before our brethren on the forum. Some serious folks have sold out their soul for power & control and with the _ _ _, and my guys are telling me to just stay safe and let the real pros handle things.

I'm the one itching to go and watch because time is almost over for this dad and her dd having fun with youth soccer. It hasn;t been all bad, just the last two or three years the adult men screwed it all up for us. Greed, Power, Selfishness and Control, what else is new with the male. No need to bring up the past. This 6 feet soccer was a big joke. Now we all know who cares about the kids and that information is very powerful for the future. Good look to your boy and I hope you guys have fun. We did the trip three times in two months and it was cool.
