honesty question --Has your team scrimmaged another team or club in the past 6 months? Or have you just stuck to the guidelines of 6' square training and no contact--please answer this truthfully
I so know the answer but I wont share it. Let's see if Canada comes clean and tells the truth. It's good to see you posting on here so much now. Welcome back

Just make sure she try's her hardest to get into a good school it will happen if she truly is a goat.
if not
don't worry it will not be the end of the world.
here's some advice, take the back seat and let your kiddo live her life, if soccer is her pathway it will happen , if its not ,
who cares
its her life not yours.
You should also take a break from the forums too, your posting way too much

Our team scrimmaged other teams from our club - no outside clubs. Went to AZ once for a tournament in October.
I have always liked you, I swear. I was a helicopter parent or some say, Hawk dad to my baby girl. Flying above to keep her away from assholes. I swooped in when she was 12 and 13. That was the only time, I swear. If you saw the sh*t I saw, you would too. I just came on here way too much last year and went off. Please forgive me 46. I got all that advice two years ago about my kids btw and put into practice. I let my daughter go last year and she is an Eagle flying around solo now. It's hard because I am a protector by nature and care so much for her. I will say I now tell her to be nice to the boys and don;t hurt them too much. Lot;s of boys have wounds and can;t handle her. I play around on here for the most part and I have nowhere to go. I can;t leave my house at all so I will stay and share. I will take a break like I did a few weeks ago. My inbox blows up because people really like what I have to share and think I quit. "Crush, where are you?" I feel called to be a voice. I will take your advice and consider my posting to much. Peace 46....

Honest answer - no scrimmages. my kids' teams (I don't play any more) went to AZ and NV in the Fall for games before this pandemic got out of hand, especially in AZ.
I will always look at the Surf brand differently now. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

True dat teacher. Thanks for honesty and being open with the forum. We all need to learn to walk in the light and not hide are true feelings from each other. I will confess my dd has done one USL. I was lying ((joking really but some will say it;s lie and I can't lie)) when I said she was playing with adult men in the Mexican League. Anyone who knows my dd knows that was BS. The truth is she works out with some the guys and some another girls who can hang. All of them are trying to get into college through hard work, good grades and staying ready when soccer is aloud. I follow all the rules too Canada, except the one USL. I feel bad and want to say at least you practice what you preach. Not too many people do that so I will always give you some props. I know you ignore and take all my satire as gospel truth and that's ok. I love you man

Well said. So much backlash on this forum about this no longer being "best of the best" tournament. I guess all of their kids always played in the best of the best flight. Luckily we never had to worry about that as my kid's team was always placed in one of the other flights.
For any tournament, the only things I wish for is we get three competitive games, my kid contributes meaningfully, and hopefully there will be a moment or two of brilliance that makes the long drive home easier.
Best of the best? I will leave you guys to worry about it.
My ego got so wrapped up in that Tagline bro, I feel sic today about how I bought into it. That is some serious advertising. If any of these soccer orgs ever got around to ask us customers what we really think, I would say this.
Stop grouping players and teams as best of the best or tier 1 or tier two player or flight one or flight two when their 13 and under. This was all tagged as a line to sell us all. I would offer this up. Get all the girls together and form local teams. Each team will have a mix of talent. As the girls get to 14 or 15, then the travel ball. Please forgive me Messi
Any of the kids get covid? We have done a few scrimmages and one tournament at Thanksgiving, about 6 games total, plus practices, not a single case in the kids or parents. But I know of at least 15 cases(these are people I know) that happened through house get togethers, college study groups, car pooling and work. Indoors vs outdoors. Really makes a huge difference for cases.

74% of the cases are home spread.
What do you think happens during the holidays?
Surf needs to think and shut this bastard down. If
they want to be greedy change double for surf next year in California since some parents
would risk anything to play and make up for the lost revenue.
I wouldn't characterize it as backlash. Many clubs/teams have backed out due to other top teams backing out. Saying that's a reason for backing out isn't backlash or a dig at Surf, it's a fact. Best of the Best is certainly subjective. If someone is on here whining about the degradation of competition at Surf but doesn't have a player on a team that would be playing in that top bracket, then shame on them.
"Best of the Best" is a tagline endorsed by Surf and sold to parents all over the country. So, for those clubs/players/parents that typically play within the framework of "best of the best", this tournament will not provide that. Every Tournament has a self proclaimed "top" bracket.

Nobody is being fooled by "Best of the Best". Not in 2020. Surf is a soccer tournament that, if it ever really was best of the best, is a reward for kids that work their asses off 3-4 days per week. Getting to play in some of the best weather on the planet. Having smoothies by the pool with teammates. Going to Sea World. Checking out some terrific, local colleges between matches. For most it's just about the experience & reward for hard work and sacrifice we all know comp players make.
You can be pissed that someone is still trying to host a soccer tournament because of Covid, but blaming them for wanting to make money is ridiculous. They aren't being deceitful and they aren't being greedy. Those of you wanting everyone to shut everything down are never going to get 100% compliance, no matter what you do, so quit whining.
Surf provides a product people want or it wouldn't exist. Stop crying about them pushing the dates back. They're chasing a moving target like Fauci and The Laundry King of France.

“Those of you wanting everyone to shut everything down are never going to get 100% compliance, no matter what you do, so quit whining.”
That’s rich, and also a straw man argument. No one expects to shut everything down, or 100% compliance. To the contrary, I’m perfectly happy with CA’s guidelines and not whining at all. I’m just having fun with the folks who actually are whining that, ironically, want everything to open up but aren’t getting 100% compliance.
What exactly are you looking for? Age group or club name?
I hadn't taken a look at the youngers but could. You need access to the registered list which requires a login.
This list is just what teams are registered at the time of view. There could be lags or updates: adds or drops in progress so it's a moving target. When the schedules come out know for sure but going to be a while since their scheduling for ~ 500 teams combined.
I think it is more about blaming them for wanting to make money by spreading covid. If they want to sell Surf Cup t-shirts online, go for it.
Completely agree that Surf is a fun party.
CA just had 60,000 new cases yesterday. AZ added another 5000. Most ICUs in both states are full or near full. This is not the time to insist on your right to travel and throw fun parties.
