WINTER SHOWCASE & CHAMPIONS CUP
The 2023-24 GA Winter Showcase & Champions Cup event heads to heads to Bell Bank Park in Mesa, AZ from November 30 to December 4. This event will be the first Champions Cup event of the season with all qualifying teams from U13 to U19 facing off. The Showcase event will feature U15 through U19 teams who will play teams outside of their conference during the event weekend.
The first possible kickoff time on a team’s first match day is as follows:
- Nov. 30 (U13, U14, U17, U19): 10:00am
- Dec. 1 (U15, U16): 10:00am
The latest possible kick-off, weather permitting, for age groups on travel-out day is 2:00PM local. This would be only if we are at MAX teams and for some reason are unable to utilize all 24 fields. Otherwise, teams should plan for 12:00PM kick-off.
