Do they realize the Easton Cup is going on the same weekend for those age groups at Schwan's?

This weekend was set early in the season based on our boys weekends & yes that is why we are working hard to fill this years tourney. The girls weekend will be moved for 2009 to hopefully attract more teams.

The irony is that you lost at least a couple '96 boys teams because you moved them to earlier in the month to make room for the girls (I realize the '95s would have moved anyway.

I could be wrong but I think there are only 3 or 4 AAA U12 teams in the Twin Cities who aren't affiliated with Showcase. At the very least it shrinks the pool considerably.
