    I'm thrilled with the variety of competition in our age group. Should be a great experience for our kids. As was said earlier... Not every tournament or league is right for every team. This one actually happens to be even better than what we were hoping.

      I did a little research inspired by what some of you have already offered up.

      Coaches listed to attend

      - FC Cup - 50+ (23 are Div I or II)
      - Weston - 18 (6 are Div I or II)
      - OC Invite - Don't see any listed. I'm sure this is just an oversight

      * There are five coaches that FC and Weston have in common *

      Applied teams

      - FC Cup - no full list that I can find
      - Weston - 12 in my kid's age group
      - OC - 14 in my kid's age group

      * At each Weston and OC, half the applied teams are ranked outside the top 60, with a handful outside the top 100. *

      * Weston has seven teams that we have either played recently or will play soon. *


      *** Using the stay and play hotel locations there are no rooms left within 40 miles of the playing fields at FC Cup. <Sounds pretty busy> ***

      It may be new and somewhat unknown but it sure seems to be doing just fine.
      Bear in mind that the games are being played in Stuart at Halpatiokee Park, about 30 miles north of West Palm Beach. The problem is that the fields are the absolute worse within 50 miles, there is very limited parking, very limited hotels and the nearest places to eat are about 5 miles from the fields. This complex is by no means built to accommodate a tournament like this........

        And you think Weston is better? Fields are the worst parking is beyond terrible and restaurants can't handle the amount of people that are in the area.

            Agreed the fields Weston play their tournament at are so bad. More dirt then grass.

                Wait until you see the fields at Halpatiokee full of divets, sand traps, and and other hazards...dangerous fields.

                    According to what I'm seeing the tournament is played at multiple sites.

                        Looking forward to another amazing Weston Cup in 2017. Our tournament just keeps getting stronger and stronger every year. Please note that even though the early registration deadline of Monday, January 9 has passed. Online registration remains open as we organize the divisions and flights. Teams will incur a $50.00 late registration fee. Teams will be accepted on a wait list basis depending on the specific age division and flight.

                              The U18b group is weak.

                              Outside of ACYS and FCF and CES, it is a collection of mid-lower tier teams:

                              What a joke. Isolated here are the clubs from out of state:

                              Bahamas Tottenham Hotspur FC U-18 Boys Bahamas.........n/a
                              Dallas Texans 99 Boys Mid-Cities Texas North ...................543/199
                              FFC-1 Academy Elite Illinois.......................................... .764//not ranked
                              VALLEY STREAM Inter United FC New York East.................1228/522
                              Worldwide Soccer Club (CA)............................................26 50/1022
                              Average ranking (if they even ARE ranked)........................1296/581

                              Whew, that's some tough competition traveling in for this "showcase", I'm SURE the college coaches are impressed with that. Three teams in total are in the top 100 teams. Unless they put all three in one showcase (and then they have to add a scrub team in the mid-200's to round it out), it will be a blowout. What college coach wants to see good players against weak competition-that shows them nothing.

                                The Girl's side looks like good competition. What are the fields like at Swan Lake Park?
