All in all it was a mediocre World Cup. Only a hand full of free kick goals with very low scoring games. It had its moments with the tournament favorites Spain winning it all but still lackluster with an abundance of 1-0 games. I'm glad there were no security issues or threats during the World Cup in South Africa; that has to be the most surprising element of this Cup.
Thanks to Robert Uvanović and živa istina for reports during the World Cup in South Africa. You guys did an amazing job filling us in on the experience!

4TH ANNUAL CROATIAN SMALLS GOALS TOURNAMENT
Join Croatians from all over North America for the 4th Annual Croatian Independence Day Small Goals Tournament in San Pedro, Ca (Located 20 miles south of Los Angeles). Last year's festivities included a welcome party Friday night at Hrvatski Dom in San Pedro, the tournament itself Saturday from 8AM-5PM, three party buses caravanning to a popular Hollywood club Saturday night followed by the headlining event Sunday: Independence Day Street Party all day at Hrvatski Dom with food, music and dancing in front of Croatian Hall. After party to follow. The following Monday is Memorial Day in which most people have the day off to relax and travel back home. It's a weekend packed with fun festivities where you can meet new Croatians. We strongly encourage you to come out and experience it first hand!

CROATIAN SMALL GOALS TOURNAMENT
Here's a slideshow I put together for the tournament that went on in San Pedro, CA on 5/24/2008. The only thing that I have to do is another version where a Croatian song plays in the background. Any suggestions?

Saturday, May 24, 2008
San Pedro, CA - Field of Dreams
(San Pedro is located 20 minutes south of Downtown Los Angeles)
There will be two divisions to participate in:
1st Division- Competitive
2nd Division- Recreational
Games will consist of 5 field players and 1 goalie.
Teams will play a minimum of 3 games.
All games will be played on Saturday.
Last year's inaugural tournament was a huge success. There was a total 12 teams that came out to play. A majority of the teams came from San Pedro, but I would like to thank again all of you that came from Rolling Hills, Los Angeles, Orange County and especially West Coast Croats who made the trip down from San Jose. Hopefully we see you all again this year.
The weekend will be full of festivities. Nothing is set in stone yet, but we are planning to hold an after-tournament get-together at a local bar/club. That Sunday, Hrvatski Dom will be hosting its annual Croatian Independence Day block party. Fresh čevape off the grill, beer, dancing and live music by Zrinski until the late hours of the night.
We would love to see Croatians from all over North America come and represent their cities (San Jose, Phoenix, Cleveland, Chicago, New York, Toronto, Vancouver).
If you plan to be in town that weekend but don't have a team, please do not hesitate to contact us as we will find a spot for you no matter what your skill level may be.
To register or get more information, please leave us a comment below and we will respond immediately.
We look forward to having another successful weekend that brings together Croatians from Southern California as well as the rest of the country. Below is a brief overview of the weekend schedule that will be taking place during the Croatian Independence Day Celebration.
