Fall Desert Cup Tournament Information

The tournament is finally upon us!  The Desert Cup Tournament is the Regional qualifier for the State Tournament in December.  This weekend, teams will either play all three games (All-Stars have four) on either Saturday OR Sunday.  Please view the schedules below for your child's game times.  It will be an exciting and fun-filled day for you and your family, so here are a few tips to make the most of the day.

*If your child is not participating in the tournament this weekend, you have the week off.

Reminders:

  • All players are required to check-in 1 hour prior to their first scheduled game
  • Players ages 10-15 are REQUIRED to provide proof of age upon check-in
  • Teams will be coached by parent volunteers, as listed on the schedule below (coaches are not allowed to coach their own teams - they will be reffing games)

Bring:
  • Layers - It will be cold in the morning and warm in the afternoon - BE PREPARED
  • Sunscreen - You can burn on any given day in Arizona
  • Water - Bring PLENTY of water for your child and the rest of the family for the long day
  • Food - There will be food vendors there, but you can bring your own food, drinks, and snacks to the complex
Most importantly, HAVE FUN!!!  This is an event they have been working hard for all season, so enjoy it!  No matter what happens, they are just kids, and they are there to learn and have a positive experience out on the field.  The best thing you can provide for your child is their own cheering section, so let them know how proud you are of them!



*Thank you, Bradford, for the color-coded schedules.
