🌴🔸GSL Emerald Coast Classic Recap🔸🌴

What a day out at Exchange Park for the Emerald Coast Classic! One of our key summer tune-up events leading into GSL Worlds in Panama City Beach this August did NOT disappoint.

With a beautiful day, steady breeze, and 16 competitive teams hitting the field, the energy was high all day!!

🏆 Men’s E Division
Good Vibes put together a flawless run, staying undefeated all day and taking home the championship over a tough Country Strong squad.

Country Strong battled hard and secured a well-earned second place finish.

🏆 Men’s D Division
Fellowship Elite continued their dominance, running through the bracket undefeated and claiming the title.

Ironmen showed grit, fighting all the way back through the loser’s bracket to reach the championship in a high-scoring showdown.

🏆 Women’s Division
After going 1-1 in pool play, The Krew flipped the switch and went on an undefeated run in bracket play to capture the championship over New Era / Competitive Edge.

👏 Huge shoutout to all the teams who came out and competed — this is exactly the kind of competition that gets squads ready for Worlds.
