The event will take place at Surf Sports Park in Del Mar, SoCal Sports Complex in Oceanside, and Galway Downs, Temecula. The tournament will happen from May 23 through May 27.
This tournament will showcase elite youth teams coming from different parts of North, Central, and South America, across different Boys and Girls age groups between U19 through U8.

Surf Sports COO Brian Enge says they look forward to being part of this event where elite soccer institutions will give the youth an opportunity to showcase their talents in San Diego.
“The Gold Cup and Copa América exist for professionals, but there is no event for youth to test themselves in the same way. Surf Sports is thrilled to join forces with an exceptional partner like Club América, together committed to bringing a world-class event for the first-time to San Diego, a city rich with Mexican culture and a vibrant soccer community. We look forward to Club América’s academy teams playing stateside, and welcome top teams from across the Americas to compete at the highest level against a growing list of professional youth academies”, said Brian Enge, Surf Sports COO.
Club America’s Sport President, Santiago Baños, says that the reigning defending champions of the Mexican top division is looking forward to this partnership to develop youth categories in the Americas.
