Huntington Beach Xtreme Cup

We took both teams to this weekend's Xtreme Cup in Huntington Beach.  Unfortunately, most of the game times conflicted and were at different fields, so I didn't capture any pictures since we were running around crazy!
Taylor's team beat FC Heat 1-0 and lost to Canyon FC 1-0, which put them in Sunday's consolation game.  They beat Madera 2-0 to finish strong, but it wasn't enough to advance.
Allison's team lost 1-0 against Exiles Saturday morning and tied 0-0 against the Raging Bulls.  However, a 2-0 victory over Dynamite Sunday morning was enough to advance them into the championship.   They faced Exiles again and won 1-0 to take the Xtreme Cup title!!
 Allison played goalie for all but one half of the first game and didn't allow any goals to be scored against her team.  So proud of her!
 This championship makes it two in a row for this great group of girls and they are improving with each game.
Allison and Turbo were all smiles as they held up the Champions trophy!!

It was a very fun weekend staying at the Ayres Hotel in Costa Mesa.  The kids all loved the downtime hanging out in the pool and having Sunday breakfast together too.  We have such wonderful families on both teams and I love seeing them all together!
