Stay and play - buyer beware.
Also - the organization's address is in Ventura. (???)
Um.. this tournament has been going on for at least 20 years, nice try though. Weather should be awesome.
Here is a list of the college coaches that went last year it is a showcase as well. Mostly D2 and D3 but something.

It's not stay and play?
Hotel Requirements
THIS IS A STAY AND PLAY EVENT FOR TRAVEL TEAMS. All teams booking hotel rooms must use the selected hotels provided by the Desert Super Cup. Any travel team not using the approved service will NOT be permitted to participate in the tournament and a refund will not be issued.
Not really sure.. im local so don't pay attention to that. Its Scottsdale near Mayo Clinic so I'm sure there are plenty of rooms. If you think it is sketchy.. don't come. Sure it will easily sell out without your team.It's not stay and play?

20 years, really? The AZ Thanksgiving tournament used to be run by Sereno afaik, but they gave it up.
This one is new (3-4 years maybe) and run by Rated Sports, a for profit company. They have the Phoenix Cup (?) in April also.
Sereno and RSL merged.. Sereno is now RSL-AZ. Either way. If you think it is sketchy don't come. It will likely sell out early next month anyway. With tournament at Silverlakes not likely to happen there is probably enough local teams to fill it. At Cactus Kickoff we had teams from CO, NM as well as CA so.. our fields are in demand. My team is already registered and they are saying already 70% full.
It's only sketchy if the hotels jack up the prices and feed back part of the bonus to the organizers without disclosure. We participated a tournament organized by USL in Illinois that offered a group discount at the headquarters hotel and let half our team stay with relatives in the area. On the other hand, our team lost in the National Cup semifinals the year the Regionals were held in Albuquerque so we just missed the bullet where the compulsory hotels provided by the organizing committee were about 20% above market.
Lol.. Every tournament we play at in either NV or SD is stay and play. Vegas Cup, Surf Cup, La Jolla Labor day Classic.. every room is at least $200 and I am sure the tournament organizers get some of that back. Although.. Scottsdale in November is prime golf season so.. market may be a bit higher as well.
Some posters feel the need to insert themselves into every discussion with nonsensical comments to make themselves feel important. The less you engage the better.
He does not have children who play.

Las Vegas Thanksgiving Classic. It's a state run tournament. This year they are recording all games and making it available to all players, teams, parents and college coaches. My kid has never played in this event so I can't comment on the quality.

In what way do you find me "creepy"? And what does "creepy" mean anyway?

Gee, another stay/play tournament, but it's Vegas, so what do you expect.
The hotels are being arranged by the Traveling Teams service company. I have never used them to book rooms. Others have.

During Covid you cant tell family's where to stay.
Charge an extra 3% to play so the tournament doesn't feel shorted and move on. Why are the simple fixes so hard?
It's not a complaint. It's full disclosure.
The only time any of us stayed at a hotel booked through a tournament or an associated travel service was the first tournament my son went to as a coach. The whole team stayed at the same hotel, and he didn't really care what it cost since the team was paying for it. We went to one tournament in Vegas where we stayed at my wife's cousin's vacation condo. Nobody seemed to mind.
