The Cannon Cup is one of those tournaments for clubs to play their 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th teams. Its not competitive.
All of them are. We’re in Virginian and the top brackets across the board are just another local tournament with one or two middling outside DMV clubs who like to do a Memorial Day tourney.
I’ll never understand why Jeff Cup is some sort of March tuneup instead of a mid-May to early June tourney. Just kidding, the clubs have to divide up their piddling cash cow tourneys throughout the year…
It would be great to have Jeff cup later in the spring season. I find my boys are usually in better form toward the end the season.
No thanks. The timing is perfect for high school and at the younger ages, teams start to fall apart after spring tryouts.

Also, why would they screw with something THAT big. It clearly is working for them with 4 weekends in a row of Richmond being kind of the east coast soccer world.
