Blitz Tournament

Do we have a accepted teams list ???

I was just looking for one on their website but nothing yet. How about we try to get one going? What teams does parents know are registering for this one? I know that 06 Kepley Black and Silver are going to register.

The TD (Robbie Mitchell) doesn't normally release one. I've listed the Kepley TSC teams.

That being said (guessing on Blitz teams based on OPL, OCL & ODL schedules along with Sheffield tournament):

u11g 11v11
Blitz 04
Blitz 04 Navy

u11g 8v8
TSC Amos Gold 04
Blitz Red 04

u10g
TSC Kepley Black 06
Blitz 05
Blitz 05 Red
Blitz 05 White

u9g
TSC Kepley 06 Silver
Blitz 06 Navy
Blitz 06
Blitz 06 Red

u8g/u7g
Blitz 08g Navy
Blitz 07 Red
Blitz 07 White

u11b 11v11
Blitz 05

u11b 8v8
Blitz 04 Black
Blitz 04 Navy
Blitz 04 Red
Blitz 04 Gold

u10b
Blitz 05 Red
Blitz 05 White
Blitz 05 Gold

u9b
TSC Kepley Gold 06
Blitz Navy 06
Blitz 06 Red
Blitz 06 White

u8/u7b
Blitz 07 Red
Blitz 07 Navy
Blitz 07 White
Blitz 08 Navy

Please add to list.

Southlakes Cosmos 05, 06 and 07 boys will be there.

Are the girls coming??

Not sure

If we can get NOKC's 06 boys red to come down it would make for a heck of a bracket.

I'll bet that some Texas Teams will show up 06 boys

Nokc academy just got back from a tournament in Overland Park KS, and has already traveled this season for a tournament in Dallas. I think they are traveled out.

Wasn't it the white team that went to Dallas and the red team who went to Overland Park?

OFC04 GIRLS are going

Ok, let us keep this going, keep adding teams!!
I would say Winters 04 and 06 teams will be there!!

Anymore teams

I emailed the director and he said the preliminary team/schedule list would not be out until this weekend.

The only question will be who Blitz plays. They will be on one side and Kitterman on the other. Would they rather play OFC or Winters? assuming there is two pools and not one pool round robin.

Does anyone know why Blitz chooses to not publish an applied teams list?  Is there some sort of advantage for the club in not letting teams see who has entered?

Does anyone know how we can get a accepted teams list, this is crazy!!!

Anyone else frustrated about the brackets and the accepted teams?

Where do you find a list of teams that didn't get accepted?

I don't think they'll reject any legit clubs teams unless they are rec. Those are the teams that signed up.

Yeah I am, u9 red

You always hate to think a club might be home-cookin' their own tournament; but the 04B 11v11 division looks pretty squirrelly.

By far the 2 strongest teams -- Air Capital and WSA -- were placed in the same bracket (B), apparently leaving Blitz 05 (playing up) with relatively easy shot at getting to the final.

If you aren't providing semifinal games, why not weight the brackets evenly to produce a final involving the two best teams?!?

Did not see many Texas teams and not many kc teams!! It looks like an upgraded version of Sheffield!!

To be fair, I went and compared the fall 2013 & fall 2014 tournaments.

Academy
What I noticed at first glance was only one NOKC team this year (05b red), no ESC teams this year, more KC teams this year.
Out of state last yr: 1 in u8 boys, 3 in u9 boys, 8 in u10 boys, 1 in u8 girls, 3 in u9 girls, 4 in u10 girls
Out of state this yr: 2 in u8 boys, 4 in u9 boys, 3 in u10 boys, 1 in u8 girls, 3 in u9 girls, 3 in u10 girls

U11-U13
There are 11 v 11 brackets for girls u11. Only 1 out of state for u11 girls (3 last yr); 9 for u11 boys (8 last yr).
U12: 8 out of state for boys (3 last yr); 0 for girls (5 last yr).
U13: 5 out of state for boys (7 last yr); 0 for girls (3 last yr).

Only NTX team I noticed last yr was FC Divas 02, who played in silver bracket. I did not see any NTX teams this year.

Tourney seems very similar to the fall Blitz last year.

You sure about this, pop? What was the WSA-Umelo Red result at BTH? What was the Air Capital-Umelo Red result?
