Carlsbad Lightning BU-8 Champs

We’re not even going to pretend we understand anything about the convoluted world of kids soccer nor it’s organizations. That said, apparently:

The Carlsbad Lightning BU-8 Red team, led by coach Bob Barbosa, prevailed over a tough Del Mar Sharks team, 4-1, to grab their first championship of the season at the Carlsbad Cup. . . .Multiple goals were scored in the tournament by Christian Kampfl, Ryan Anderson, Cole Miller, Jet Trask and Ryan Ashby. Outstanding defensive play was provided by Bennet Chergosky, Juan Ibanez and Ethan Cohen. Star goalies included Cooper Ward and Logan Schmitt.

This of course follows the Carlsbad Lightning GU-12 Black Championship win on Monday. Two questions: how many “championships” are there in a season? And, do these kids get a blue ribbon and a trophy each and every time they kick the ball?
