The West Windsor-Plainsboro Soccer Association cordially invites boys and girls teams U-08 through U-16 to participate in our 14th Annual Sunburst Soccer Tournament on May 31 - June 1, 2008. This is a New Jersey Youth Soccer-sanctioned unrestricted tournament, so US Youth Soccer player passes and U.S. Club passes are permitted. West Windsor is located in Central New Jersey and is easily accessible by several major interstate highways.
The Sunburst Tournament has traditionally drawn 200+ teams from throughout New Jersey, Delaware, New York, Pennsylvania and Connecticut. Each age group typically includes multiple flights to allow for competitive play at all levels. The Tournament Committee makes every attempt to flight teams to provide the appropriate level of competition for all participating teams. All teams are guaranteed 4 games and a 3-person referee crew is utilized for all U-11 to U-16 games. All games are played at one central location at Mercer County Park in beautiful West Windsor, New Jersey.

What to Expect at Sunburst 2008
To celebrate WWPSA’s newly-formed partnership with the NJ Wildcats, a semi-pro women’s soccer team in our area, the Wildcats will be granting free admission to all players participating in Sunburst and 1/2 price tickets to accompanying adults to either of the 2 home games the Wildcats have scheduled for Sunburst Weekend.
In addition, our friends from PUMA have several activities and events planned, including a PUMA-sponsored player appearance, hot-off-the-presses equipment to try, giveaways, tournament-only discounts on merchandise purchases, and more. The extremely popular misting tent is planned as well, and it might even have a twin this year for twice the fun!
