The Florida Sports Commission is a top-notch organization that will put together a top-notch event.  The 17 grass soccer fields will blow everyone away in terms of quality and set-up.  We even have 3-lighted fields and one Stadium field which will be used to highlight some of the key games each day.  Shuttles will run between the Westin and the fields and we are working on getting other hotels to do the same. Click here to register for the tournament today.

Teams 50 and over will be required to take a water break at the middle of each half and other teams can do the same if both teams agree. Games will be played at the following times 7:30am 8:30am, 9:30am, siesta between 11:30am – 3pm.  Games will run through the evening with the last game starting at 7pm.

Every field has team benches and will have 2 pop-up tents.  Wait until you will see the beer garden and VIP section we are planning to put together with the help of the Florida Soccer Association!  Stay tuned for more information on the hospitality suite at the Westin hotel (HQ) that will provide light snacks and drinks.

The Westin Hotel is amazing and the hotel rate we are getting is really good.  This hotel is about a year old and is top-notch.

I am not even going to tell you this time around about the party. You will have to stay tuned for that. Let me just say this: this will probably the most memorable party ever! Sign up before March 31st and save $100 on your registration.

Well, I can go on for hours and rave about the upcoming event.  I am super excited and I know the entire Committee can’t wait to put together the best Veterans Cup ever.  As usual please send us questions or any concerns at veteranscup@gmail.com.
