    Needham Tournament

    Are the schedules usually delayed for this long? Would like to get my weekend plans set.

    Not unusual for tournaments, almost all tournaments, to be late getting schedules finalized. The bigger the tournament, the more likely it will be early, but never guaranteed.

    The joys of club soccer and making holiday weekend plans... I just learned long ago to not make anything firm on those weekends.

      Earliest you might see Needham 2 two weeks before, so end of this week. But I've seen it be even less than that. Better to assume your weekend is shot then be pleasantly surprised when it isn't

        In the past this tournament has been run very well. It will be interesting to see how it goes this year. Just remember to allow time for parking.

          Originally they said schedule would be out May 1, then delayed to May 7, now there is no update. I agree, would be nice to know the schedule ASAP for plans. I know we aren't going away but I wish I could at least plan a BBQ. You're right, some of the smaller tournaments are even later with the schedule.

            I've taken the tact that I just schedule the BBQ for Sunday afternoon. Usually works out. Last year, my daughter and I had to disappear for a couple of hours.

              This is the first time our team is doing this tournament. If they make it to playoffs, are those usually in the morning Monday or is it a crapshoot?

                Crapshoot.

                I'll add, one year we were local, and I popped over to my daughter's game and red-cupped a few so I kept pace with the party....

                  I've heard that they're really struggling to get teams. GPS split killed this event.

                    I don't know if that's true but it is too bad to see the split. Some good teams at both tournaments.

                      It seems they have a lot of teams, some of which are traveling pretty far, but there aren't a lot of quality teams.

                        Are we reading the same list? Looks like it will be good. It has been for years and nice for Needham.

                          I think it looks pretty good. Just wish they didn't give false dates for schedules. Supposed to be May 1, I got excited that I would know my plans early this year. Oh well live and learn.

                            Wish college showcase was not in Amherst. Seems like GPS won out on access to Lancaster

                              Early in the soccer experience I learned to assume my weekend is shot and if the schedule worked out better than expected then that's great. Many times there are last minute changes, so personally I'd rather it be be a little later but concrete, vs early and changed
