Welcome to the official site of the Carlsbad Cup 2008
Welcome to the official site of the 2008 Carlsbad Cup, presented by adidas and Eurosport. Lightning Soccer is proud to host the 2nd Annual Carlsbad Cup, a Class I Competitive Soccer Tournament for ages U8 to U19. More than 240 teams attended last year’s inaugural cup located in the beautiful coastal town of Carlsbad, California and we anticipate a similar field again this year.

All fields will be located within 20 minutes of each other and just minutes away from some of the finest beaches in southern California. Our outstanding selection of fields includes a minimum of 8 turf fields- more than any other local tournament!

For those teams planning to join us from outside the area, local San Diego attractions include Legoland, the world famous San Diego Zoo, Sea World, the La Costa Resort and Spa, as well as plenty of great shopping and sunsets. Make a great summer vacation out of it while your children play in some of the most temperate summer weather in the country!

Teams from Top Clubs committed to play in Carlsbad Cup:

Surf, P.Q. Premier, Del Mar, FC San Diego, Honolulu Bulls, Poway, and several others.
