Looks like 02s could potentially play up, but 03s are out of luck

I totally agree with the rule...I'm just disappointed the 03s are left out.
But I get it...with the field shortage and the 03s needing the big fields yet being small man on the totem poll and of course there's the price difference between U10 and those older (select teams)....which has to go into the tournament committee's decision process

Actually, we chose to leave out divisions where AFC does not have a team.

We are interested in entering, but now are being hyper critical about tournaments allowing too many teams to play up. Last tournament we were in we had 2 teams playing up in our bracket, 13-0 and 8-0 we won. It is not good for the teams playing if the team is not good enough. I suggest that some regulations be put on this.... maybe proof that they are a top team in there current league... etc. We do no want to do this again

Do you think any team entering should be allowed to play up, or should they have a proven track record of being a top team in their current league?

In the past, I have only allowed Classic-level teams to play up. Rarely has it been an issue. I think I had a couple of teams (last Nov or last May tournament) play up and make the Finals.

Sorry I have not looked online to see how many teams eneterd in the past years...can you recap for me when you get a minute. It is really nice to notplay the same teams in the playoffs/finals.

That is appreciated and will make help make our decision easier

There are a couple other tournaments around the same timeframe, some of which cost less. For example, the Xara tournament is over $100 less per team at the higher age groups. We haven't played in an Aces tournament before. What differences or advantages? How is the academy level competition?

Thanks

I have posted on the forums a tournament teams list in each of the specific age groups. If you do not see a teams list in a specific age group, then either we are not able to offer that age group, or there are not currently at least 3 teams committed to it.

I am not going to compare and contrast the tournaments on the forums. I live in Denton and was involved, in the past, with Kick It Kodi. It benefits a GREAT cause. I work for GLASA in various capacities and used to run all GLASA tournaments, including the previous XARA (which was my last GLASA tournament).

Although my bb no longer plays for AFC, I have stayed on as Tournament Director, because we put on two good tournaments per year. The last two were played in Lewisville and had over 200 teams each. I am not saying our tournaments are better than any other tournaments and I know that there are other choices out there.

AFC Tournaments offer:
- Teams lists posted on the forums earlier than most NTSSA tournaments
- Full-length games (like league play)
- Referees assigned by the assignor for the LHGCL

McInnish, RE Good, Corinth


We are offering Thursday (11/Cool and Friday (11/9) night play to help local coaches with multiple teams AND to avoid conflicts with league rainout games on Saturday (11/10) and Sunday (11/11).


- 3 referees on all games
- No mini-games, all games will be same length as league games
- TROPHIES awarded
- Gotsoccer used for registration, schedules, and results
- Gold and Silver divisions, when possible
- No mandatory lodging rules, but we listed a few on tournament page
- Online check-in for all team documents


Registration deadline = October 26th


Due to our limited field availability*, we are only offering the following divisions. If you want to "play up" to a division we are offering, you are welcome to:

- U8 Academy = 8v8, 25-minute halves, max roster of 14 players, $325 for NTSSA or USYSA roster, $350 for US Club roster
- U9 Academy = 9v9, 25-minute halves, max roster of 16 players, $350 for NTSSA or USYSA roster, $375 for US Club roster
- U12 Competitive = 11v11, 30-minute halves, max roster of 18 players, $545 for NTSSA or USYSA roster, $570 for US Club roster
- U13 Competitive = 11v11, 35-minute halves, max roster of 18 players, $545 for NTSSA or USYSA roster, $570 for US Club roster
- U14 Competitive = 11v11, 35-minute halves, max roster of 18 players, $545 for NTSSA or USYSA roster, $570 for US Club roster
- U15 Competitive = 11v11, 40-minute halves, max roster of 18 players, $545 for NTSSA or USYSA roster, $570 for US Club roster

* = We are limited in available fields, because GLASA moved their tournament to this weekend and because other facilities could not guarantee that they would not need their fields for their rained out games. If we acquire additional fields, we will open the tournament to other age groups

There are a couple other tournaments around the same timeframe, some of which cost less. For example, the Xara tournament is over $100 less per team at the higher age groups. We haven't played in an Aces tournament before. What differences or advantages? How is the academy level competition?

Thanks

I have posted on the forums a tournament teams list in each of the specific age groups. If you do not see a teams list in a specific age group, then either we are not able to offer that age group, or there are not currently at least 3 teams committed to it.

I am not going to compare and contrast the tournaments on the forums. I live in Denton and was involved, in the past, with Kick It Kodi. It benefits a GREAT cause. I work for GLASA in various capacities and used to run all GLASA tournaments, including the previous XARA (which was my last GLASA tournament).

Although my bb no longer plays for AFC, I have stayed on as Tournament Director, because we put on two good tournaments per year. The last two were played in Lewisville and had over 200 teams each. I am not saying our tournaments are better than any other tournaments and I know that there are other choices out there.

AFC Tournaments offer:
- Teams lists posted on the forums earlier than most NTSSA tournaments
- Full-length games (like league play)
- Referees assigned by the assignor for the LHGCL
- Thursday and Friday night play for local teams to try and keep players from playing three games on a Saturday and to help with conflicts of coaches with more than one team
- Tournament Director seeks seeding assistance from Academy coaches before seeding Academy divisions
- Easy Check-in
- Prompt response to emails and phone calls to the Tournament Director

Great this helps. Appreciate it. BTW- We like the Thurs / Fri play, it does help with the scheduling and spreads out the games.

I would think that by early next week there will be enough in the U-9 group to post a list. If two specific teams I'm familiar with sign up as expected, then it should be on it's way to being a very competitive group. Played in the AFC-Adidas in the spring and everything seemed to be first class.
