Silverlakes is definitely hotter - going to be 100+ all 4 days
. Where are the coaches going?
I love Surf Cup, and prefer games near the coast, but no need to spread misinformation about SilverLakes. Most games will be played Fri-Sun and, as of right now, it's forecast to be only a couple degrees hotter than the historical average for this time of year. None of this should be a shock to the teams that signed up for this tournament (or the coaches who have registered to attend).Silverlakes is definitely hotter - going to be 100+ all 4 days.

Not putting a positive spin on anything. 96 degree soccer games suck. But the OP was suggesting coaches would defect because of the weather forecast. I was addressing that particular suggestion.Now that's how you put a positive spin on something!! So it's historically hot as hell out there and it's only forecast to be a couple of degrees hotter than hell that weekend. hmm?

Whatever, dude. Don't spread misinformation and don't f*ck with kids' college opportunities.Huh? I never said a coach would defect. I was trolling though.

I agree entirely but would add that it's not just DA teams that coaches are interested in. Not all coaches are looking for the same thing. I saw over 20 coaches come to see one game between Flight 1 girls teams at Legends' SilverLakes tournament last month. Plus there's a lot of good ECNL teams (from within and out of state) playing at SilverLakes this year too.Remember that is 96 degrees in the shade. Del Mar (boys) will be 80, 74, 75 degrees and overcast (Sat-Mon) and Oceanside (girls) 80, 74, 78 degrees and overcast (Sat-Mon). As a referee I would much rather be working Surf Cup in Del Mar or Oceanside. As for the college coaches, they will have someone where they need to be to see the players they are interested in. Surf Cup has the DA teams playing Thu, Fri, Sun, Mon and Non-DA Sat, Sun, Mon. Silverlakes lists all teams including the DA teams playing Fri, Sat, Sun. I would imagine most of the college coaches will boogie up to Silverlakes on Saturday when the DA teams are not playing Surf Cup. The drive is not that far from Del Mar or Oceanside to Silverlakes, so it will be like last year and the coaches that may want to see players at another venue will travel to those players.
Inquiring minds want to know which tourney will BH be scouting at this weekend.

"Historical average" temperature is part of the problem.
Silverlakes is definitely hotter - going to be 100+ all 4 days. Where are the coaches going?
So my experience says it has nothing to do with the weather at either places.
Coaches come to games to watch players they already have had contacts and some interests. I have never known any coach that simply cold visit games to "discover" talent. Not saying it doesn't happen but its not the norm, I don't believe.
The coaches will be at wherever the players of interests are. So if prospects are at Surf, they will be at Surf and if at Silverlakes, then at Silverlakes. Its a job to scout players and is for their livelihood ultimately as it translates into team success.
If its hot, its hot. If its cold, its cold. Weather has nothing do with scouting at which tournaments. Its a matter of who do they want to see.

LOL, you're trolling again....Last year so many people were saying the coaches want to go to the beach. Are you sure.

You really should think about those parents that don't know the difference and take your words seriously as it relates to their kids.
