Fancy doing this in a couple of years? The Gothia Cup is the largest youth soccer tournament in the world and it is held in Sweden, mostly in Stockholm and neighbouring towns.
Teams from Cordova Bay have attended this tournament in the past. A number of British Columbia teams are competing this year, including a U16 team from White Rock (Semiahmoo). There's even a story on the Semiahmoo team on the official tournament website. Have a look for a better idea of what this tournament is all about. It truly is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Chaos September Soccer Schedule
Early September promises to be an exceptionally busy time for the Chaos coaches and players. Below is a quick overview of dates, times and places:
September 2 or 3 - Final Tryouts
September 5-6-7 - Tourney on the Turf @ Finlayson Park
September 9 or 10 - Regular practices begin
September 12 - Exhibition Game vs TBA @ Lochside Park
September 19 - First League Game!
Depending on holiday schedules we may have some late August practices, but due to the late school opening I'm not expecting to make any final player selections until Thursday September 3. By then I should have a better idea of overall registration numbers which in turn dictates how many players can be selected for the Gold team.
The "Tourney on The Turf" is a half-field tournament held every Labour Day at Finlayson Turf. I've entered teams in this tournament the past couple of years as I believe it's an excellent warm-up for the regular season. It's also an excellent way to size-up the opposition. Besides GH, I expect Bays and Gorge will form strong teams this season and there is every reason to expect their teams will be at this tourney.
