CZ Elite National Champions at Dallas Cup
The U17 Boys National Champions head for Dallas this week to take on the worlds top youth teams.



After 5 trips to Dallas and representing the United States as the reigning National Champions CZ Elites U17 boys are leaving for Dallas for one last time this week to compete against the worlds best in the Dallas Cup Super Group.

National ChampionsTheir draw for pool play is tough pitting our boys against Cruzeiro Esporte Clube from Brazil, TSG 1899 Hoffenheim from Germany and CD Guadalajara Chivas from Mexico. Other teams in the Super Group include Chelsea FC and Tottenham FC from England and the Japanees, Mexican and United States national teams.

Just making it out of pool play will be difficult enough for the boys. But there are no easy pools in the Super Group. This team has always played a fast elegant game with creativity and flair. This has proved too much for international sides in the past and this won't be the first time the boys have been pitted against the best clubs in the world.
Cherif will be leading the charge as the boys head to Dallas. This year Cherif was honored with the Nike Coach of the Year for competitive boys teams in Southern California.

The cards are delt and a better club side can not be presented for the competition. We can only wish good luck and hope for the best for this great side. This is the first time CZ Elite has sent a side to the Super Group.
