We are always looking for top tier talent to be a part of our program,” says Webb. “Scouting these type of showcase tournaments is part of what we do at UCA. It’s also a great way for us to reach outside our state and do some real networking with coaches and players.” The Beat the Heat Soccer Showcase is expected to draw top level competitive soccer teams in the U8 to U18 divisions from Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina, as well as central and south Florida.
