Welcome

Strikers South Coast is proud to present the annual STRIKERS CUP. The tournament will be held on August 24th and 25th, 2013.  The Strikers Cup has quickly become the premier youth soccer tournament in Southern California. Each year, the quality of competition increases and this year we aim to raise the standard of competition again. Our host venue will be the Huntington Beach Sports Complex, with fields at Westminster High School, Marina High School and various fields surrounding the city of Huntington Beach.

The Strikers Cup is a Cal South sanctioned Class 1 Tournament and is open to all USSF affiliated teams U9 through U19. We accept all USSF National Association Player Passes.

Our tournament is uniquely designed to be one of the last tournaments to be held before the opening of the CSL, the SCDSL, and the Presidio League’s competitive season. We will do our best to bracket every participating Strikers Cup team with teams in their respective CSL, SCDSL and Presidio placement levels. Each team competing in the Strikers Cup will play a minimum of three games, with teams that advance out of bracket playing in semi-finals and finals.

Prestigious team trophy for the Champion as well as individual medals will be presented to the teams finishing in 1st and 2nd place. There will be Championship   t-shirts for all winners.

In any age group where there are two flights, the tournament committee alone will determine into which group teams will be placed. Mercurial will be Flight I and T90 will be Flight II. If you have a preference for a particular flight, please email the Tournament Director and make a note of your request in the application under “Team History”.

If you wish to APPLY FOR PARTICIPATION in Strikers Cup 2013, please follow the on-line registration instructions.
