Only REAL Albion and Surf Cup Updates

If you have REAL information about these 2 tournaments, please post here. If you don’t think tournaments should be happening right now, THIS THREAD IS NOT FOR YOU! GO AWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My team is signed up for these 2 tournaments and I need updates when available.

Specifically U13
 
Aren't those tournaments providing customers with updates?

Vegas is open if people want to gamble thousands on chance, at least there guarantee payouts on some of the gaming.

Suppose to be a surfcup update some time day so watch for that.

Predicting the future is tricky business. If the state, county, local people can agree anything is possible.
 
Our 04 team was going to do the Crossfire college showcase in Redmon, Washington this July. Our team opted out, but the tournament is still going forward with precautions.

Thanks for the update
 
Has anyone heard anything about Albion Cup? It’s the first tournament coming up, and as much as I want to believe it’s not going to happen, I still need to let people know. And if it miraculously happens, we have some travel to book!
 
Specifically U13
our coach is really good about communication and we haven't heard anything about Albion being canceled (u15).

After several days of listening to our most important customers - college coaches and the nation's top recruits - it has become clear Surf Cup is more critical than ever to help create connections between these two groups. Therefore, we are moving Surf Cup Olders (Aug. 1-3 and Aug. 7-9) to Labor Day Weekend, Sept. 5-7, 2020. Boys will play at SoCal Sports Complex in Oceanside, and Girls will play at Surf Sports Park in Del Mar. Due to the change in date, we would advise all teams who have previously applied for Man City Cup 2020 to apply for Surf Cup 2020 as we are confident this will be the Best of the Best recruiting opportunity in 2020! The transition to Labor Day will also give us an extra four weeks to allow the current COVID spikes in several hot spots to be reduced.


After speaking with our customers, we learned that:

  • College coaches still need to fill their upcoming classes and haven't seen recruits play over the last 5 months.
  • Virtual recruiting is now an accepted part of the recruiting process, and coaches are comfortable with assessing players via video.
  • College recruits haven't had the opportunity to play live in front of scouts for the last 5 months.
  • College recruits don't have any fresh game content to submit highlight or game form to coaches.
  • Both parties are asking Surf to help the process during this unique time

Demand for Surf Cup in 2020 has been extremely high, and we are expecting the Best of the Best teams to compete and showcase their players. We expect college coaches to be able to attend. However, if recruiting rules do not allow college coaches to attend in person, we are working with NextPro and the ScoutingZone to create an innovative solution to offer video options for college coaches. This solution will also make game footage available to all players within the recruiting age groups.


We realize that with the changes and restrictions of COVID we have to be flexible and innovative. Surf Cup has always been a leader in our sport, and we will continue to lead and continue to be the nation's top event for connecting college coaches and top recruits. At the same time, we realize this change will create conflicts or inconveniences for some of our participants, and we apologize for that. This is an unusual move for us, but this is also an unusual period of time.


Come be part of the Best of the Best this Labor Day in San Diego!


Thank you,
Surf Cup

Ahhh Surf are good at putting emails together pretending they care about people and not money. How kind of them. So, surf director called the nations top recruits personally? lol

Sadly, SD county will scale back into Phase 2 in the coming days and indoor things will not be allowed. They better hope not a big influx of cases from 4th of July occurred or else little to no chance for Labor Day even. Best of luck though!
 
I apologize if this has already been posted but Albion moved its "showcase" back to August 22.
We got the email yesterday, thank you. I still don’t see how tournaments will happen in August, when kids can’t even do conditioning 6 feet apart from each other.
 
Go ahead and make vacation plans. Ain't no way there's a tournament anywhere in so cal this summer.
I've got a buddy in St. Louis. His daughter is on an ECNL team and his son plays club lacrosse. Practices, games and tournaments are in full swing.
Maybe Surf Cup can move to Missouri this year.
