GU11 Finalist Rich Bailey Girls’ Friendship Tournament

The Apex Girls U-11 team took second place in the top flight of the Rich Bailey Girls’ Friendship tournament in Anaheim on January 20-21. In pool play, the girls competed against very strong Silver teams from Crescenta Valley and AVSC Ambush, winning 2-1 and 2-0. The girls advanced to the semi-finals and played an exciting match against a fantastic team from Laguna Niguel, winning 4-1 on penalty kicks at the end of regulation. In the finals, the team went up against the Westside Breakers and held them scoreless for 48 minutes, but the Breakers scored a couple of beautiful goals in the last few minutes of the match to earn the win.

We’re very proud of how this team is developing. Defeating three Silver teams and competing strongly against a team moving up to Silver Elite is a major accomplishment. Way to go girls!
