'06 SuperCopaG Winner

I was able to take the DD's out to catch a few games this weekend and I must say kudos to U90 and SuperCopa for what appeared to be a very well run tournament. Putting something together of this size is not an easy task, but they pulled it off nicely. Aside from the parking nightmare, it was an awesome event. Officiating was...well, something that can be improved on for next year. The fields were awesome and there was nice soccer on display in all of the age groups. (The 03 striker from Cincy was just sick) There is some serious talent in the 06's.
Congrats to all 4 NTX teams for making the quarterfinals, and to Solar and Kicks for the all NTX final.
Kudos to coach JM and his girls on the impressive tournament win. The Kicks team is legit. Skill and SPEED all over the field. Those girls are explosive and very entertaining to watch. I was most impressed by the way they passed the ball around the field, specifically by trying to work it out of the back, and not just kicking it forward. That is refreshing to see in Ntx especially at this age. Keep it up coach.
Let me end by echoing SkeetsG06 words. Ntx can not be satisfied with being "the best" at u9-u11. This 06 group is off to a great start. The work, development, and, training has to continue in order for NTX to continue to compete on a national level(National team, D1 programs, etc).

Have you ever thought that maybe being "the best" at U9-U11 is the problem?

I would like to clarify that this sounds like me, but futbollove and I are not alters. Also, the ironic thing is that JM isn't even a speed guy.

Do tell? I'm interested in hearing your rational.

I was not implying that at all. I was simply stating that the girls were fast. Nothing more, nothing less.
Both teams played with skill. Solar girls were just as skilled. But there is no denying that the Kicks speed played a huge factor in the game. Solar, and no other team for that matter, was able to match it.

I want both my kids to be the best they can be. It's not a bad word at all. Winning team is not what makes you the best.

It was nice to see 2 NTX teams playing good possession type of soccer in the finals. Its no fun watching a team with a bunch of booting bloody toes win it.

Ignorance is bliss and in some cases just good old used car salesman sales pitches make everyone feel better.

Man, you are sounding like me!

Congrats to 4 NTX teams making it to quarters. And a big hats off to kicks for winning it all and knocking off one Cali team and a new look solar team and hard nose Texans team. # 13, #10 , #23 and Great Wall of Plano have great soccer iq and speed and know how to play aggressive , skillful, attacking soccer.

Thank you U90 for putting Super Copa G.  Great experience for all young players.  We appreciate all the NTX support. NTX and CA were well represented  in this age group.  

Socal teams I hope you come back next year. It was nice getting to play some very talented teams from Cali. I was beyond impressed at the level of play by your goal keepers.  The Albion and Barcelona goal keepers were fun to watch.  Galaxy goal keeper was solid too but I felt we didn't play our best or had as many opportunities.  Credit Galaxy for a great tough game.

I was under the impression that Sting Fuego and sting black were pretty much the same group of players with a few additions/subtractions. If that's true, who's coming to surf cup? Do they have enough talent to make two teams?

Coach, I was very impressed by your girls. So calm under pressure. They gave my daughter a workout for sure (Albion Keeper).
