Tournament Notes: 6 groups of 3 teams each, played 2 games in round 1. Teams were seeded into the second round based on those results. The top 8 teams qualified for the Gold Division, while the next 8 teams qualified for the Silver division or consolation. Teams 17 and 18 played a one game playoff for last place.
LA kickers finished 3rd in their group with 6 points and were seeded 12th and played the 13th seeded team in the first knockout round of the silver division. After winning games vs the Dargans, Wanderers and Pasadena Soccer Club, the Kickers captured the Silver division championship with a goal in the last minute of the game.
The semi-final was also a dramatic win for the kickers. In the last minute of the game, a penalty kick was awarded for the Wanderers and the kick was saved securing the victory.
