Warrior Cup?

Post by manchild »

I looked at the web site and they had a list of the teams and they are all local open level teams. So far it looks like second (or third ) level teams that can not get into the Meltdown or the Stars and Stripes. A few questions:

Do they have any real AAA teams playing?

Are there any Canadian teams?

Who has paid a deposit? Without a deposit it's just talk and name dropping

My son has been asked to play on a couple of different teams. They are all saying that they are going to play in the major local tournaments. But when I start looking into it these tournaments, it looks pretty weak.

Does any one know if there is a team out there looking for players at the 98 level that will be playing in the major tournaments at the invite level?

First of all manchild I would change your attitude that is why you are still looking for a place for your kid to play! Several teams go to top level invite tourney's. If you feel the need to have your son play on a top level team put one toghter your self and go play in some Canadian tourney's you will find them humbeling to say the least.

Coach 75 take a pill and relax! Can you answer my questions? We are looking for a high level team that might work with other summer plans. Of corse every one tells you about how great there team is going to be, then you look at the level of the players and it will be a B level team at best.

Is it to much to ask that people be truthful about the level of the players and the level of teams in the tournaments?

Manchild,

what teams are you looking at? What age level?

I would tend to say that most of the "high level teams" have already set their rostes but I've been wrong before.
Is it to much to ask that people be truthful about the level of the players and the level of teams in the tournaments?
Do you know every team and the talent level of each club that's listed on their site? If a team is strong/weak at one age level does that follow for the rest of their teams?

Since this organization is not part of the Alliance, maybe the teams that are are not allowed to play here under "Alliance Law" :lol:
