"This year saw some very imaginative costumes and an array of festival activities, said Milton Arraez, 3v3 Tournament Director. "Turf Cup is a great event to help celebrate the Easter weekend for our members and the visiting teams on first class facilities."
"The club in partnership with The Woodlands Township have continued to excel in providing youth soccer tournaments for the last 18 years," said Simon Boddison, Director of Soccer Operations. "Providing positive economic impact to the local community and hosting events for our residents to attend without extensive travel is why we continue to grow our tournament series yearly.
