Bracket A is fantastic. All three teams are very strong. This is Castro's "B" team, but they are still very talented. I like Dallas Texans South for the win, with Texas Lightning second. This could be completely the opposite, however.

Bracket B, not sure about the El Paso team. I would go with TFC Trevino to win this one. Mexico looks like a good club, so I would take them second.

I would pick DTS over Mexico and Texas Lightning over TFC in the semis', then DTS over Texas Lightning for the Championship and rematch.

The question should be how many if Castro A team will be playing.
If its his true B team then I predict the final will be

Texas Lightening v TFC Trevino with the final going to shoot outs.

has anyone checked to see if Mexico FC 02 are playing in a tournament. that will tell you how strong of a team Mexico FC 03 will have for this.

that doesn't seem like a real great job of seeding. just sayin. Castro's stronger team is playing in the PT tourney this weekend as well vs Thornber and FCDP, so kind of doubt there is any A team padding going on, and frankly I've never seen him do that before as he has too many kids and his 2nd team can hold its own. The last time I watched DTS and Lightning play (some random Liv tourney in Lewisville a few months back), Lightning was pretty dominant. Fwtw.

Lightning also carry a few older kids at times, and since classic league is over, anything is possible. Know a parent whose older BB plays with and against 2 of the kids at times....

If you want the golden ticket....You cant roster any kids who are already playing in the Dallas Premier Copa and most of these teams are playing elsewhere.
Solar Castro
FCDP
DTA Leite
Odyssey

Should be a solid tournament, hoping to not have to deal with any roster issues...


"When is your birthday?".... "I don't know, I had one last year?"

Yeah!!! I know a parent who has a friend who has bb who has friend on
Lightning and says they use older players all the time ....

Standings are showing the El Paso team might be the best team.

How do they get away with using older players? Don't they have player cards with pictures and show birth certificate?

Congratulations to Coach Sampaio and the Texas Lightning 03 Boys for winning the play-in spot to the Dallas Premier SuperCopa!
