It's hosted by Valor which I know is a club that gets a lot of  based on the 300+ page thread, but I thought this would be a fun thing to do for DD and a few of her friends over Thanksgiving weekend. Has anyone done it before? DD is U11.

Some of these 3v3 events barely get enough teams to have a full bracket. Be sure to ask if they will combine age groups and boys and girls brackets. This strikes me as event that may cancel some age groups.

As a parent who’s done some 3v3, not this one, let it rip. It’s fun, get a good group together, do something fun that night, it’s good to break out of some of the larger team drama and do something a little smaller every now and then.
Worst case, they get some touches for a day while you hang with other parents you actually like. |

Nope nope nope never!
My kid played in a rec tournament run by Valor to make money and it was a complete s-show. |

there used to be an enormous thread of complaints about this valor tournament, I never read it but anything with that many complaints isn't worth the time even if it was free.
i'm sure Valor will take a hefty admin fee out of the profits before donating what's left to charity. |

Read carefully. Valor is keeping all the tournament fees as profit. The "benefit" to the charity is the unwrapped gifts they are asking people to bring. |

How is there an enormous thread of complaints about a tournament that never existed before? |

Great so you bumped a thread about an entirely different tournament. |

| Whatever, if the other thing they run has 49 pages of complaints, why would this new thing be any different |

A small 3 v 3 tournament at one complex is easier to manage than a rec tournament. It's not that serious... |

They have a track record of Tournament Fail. Why waste your precious holiday time or money? You seem a little defensive about it. |

I don't care one way or another. But if your going to comment at least be factual. If others want to get out and play soccer on a day that doesn't have anything else why do you care if people do? Is there a chance of it being a cold mess sure. It's not much $$ let others have some fun. |

| Does it say 100% of registration fees will go to charity? Just curious. |
