Youth Soccer News: 2012 Nomads Thanksgiving Tournament Prepares to Take the Pitch for Competition and Camaraderie

The 2012 Nomads Thanksgiving Tournament, sponsored by Nike and Demosphere International, will hit the pitch on November 23-25, 2012, at 27 locations around San Diego, California.

Over 300 teams from around the U.S. and as far as Canada are expected to take part in the competitive Class1 three-day tournament, which accepts international and ODP/Select teams. In conjunction with the tournament, the San Diego Soccer Festival will take place at the Town and Country Resort in Mission Valley. San Diego is a great place for a soccer tournament and offers reliably perfect weather with only the occasional threat of rain as well as tons of family-fun activities. 

With a maximum of 32 teams in each division, Boys and Girls U6 to U19, the tournament promises to bring plenty of action and high-level competition.

Each team will play a minimum of three games and a maximum of six. Friday first game will be between 8:00 a.m. and Noon, with second first round game beginning at Noon. Third first round games will be Saturday between 8:00 a.m. and Noon, and quarterfinals will be Saturday beginning at 2:00 p.m. Semi-finals are Sunday between 8:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m., and finals are between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. The last games kick off around 2:00 p.m.

The San Diego Soccer Festival will be held at the Town and Country Resort’s Grand Exhibit Hall and runs from 6:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on November 23 and 24. The agenda for this event includes a Participant Thanksgiving Dinner Celebration on Thanksgiving Day and breakfast hosted by Nomads. There will also be a Futsal (5v5) tournament for U6 through U8 players. On Friday night Eurosport will host a Coach Party.  The weekend will also feature a Goalie Wars competition on Saturday, November 24, at UCSD NCR Field 5.

A highlight of the Festival is the College Recruiting Seminar with coaches from around the country. In 2011 over 300 players and families attended the College Forum.

This is an excellent opportunity for high school-age players to find out more about the college recruiting process and get questions answered. In addition, players can set up a profile that coaches can access prior to the tournament. More information is located on the Player Resources page at Nomads.

In order to participate in the Nomads Thanksgiving Tournament, players must have a current player pass or equivalent national association and medical release. Unlimited loan players will be permitted to a roster, determined by the rules of your Association (i.e. Cal South 22, US Club Soccer 26).

However, only eighteen (18) players can be named on the Game Card. All teams from outside of USYSA Region 4 are required to provide travel papers or US Club Soccer cards (if from another country, the team must produce international travel papers from their National Federation).

“We have over 260 teams already signed up to play in the Nomads Thanksgiving Tournament,” said Mary Kaliff, Nomads Director of Tournament and Club Operations, “and we are thrilled to announce that we still have room for more. This will be another great tournament.”
