San Diego, CA., November 1, 2023— Surf Cup Sports (San Diego, CA) is proud to announce the launch of our newest partner club, Western Washington Surf. In the world of youth sports, the Surf brand is renowned for professionalism, elite event management, high-quality coaching, and, most importantly, a deep commitment to player development. Our mission is to create experiences and opportunities for players, and we’re excited to announce our next step toward achieving this goal in Western Washington.
Effective immediately, Titans FC, one of the fastest-growing clubs on the western side of the state, will transition to the newly formed Western Washington Surf. This partnership now extends the Surf presence across the entire state, with clubs in both Eastern and Western Washington. The newest club will join the Surf Nation community, continuing to build a regional powerhouse through its Elite program and geographical footprint, accelerating additional experiences and opportunities for all players.
The Surf Nation community has a proven track record and rich history of developing players, seeing them move through the player pathway into National Team programs and the professional and collegiate ranks. Led by the most experienced, knowledgeable, and passionate soccer minds, Western Washington Surf will provide high-quality programming and a complete pathway for elite and regional players.
“We strive to make Surf Nation stronger in talent every single day,” says Andy Prosser, Surf Nation Director. “As our Surf Nation Program continues to expand, it’s essential that we partner with clubs and staff run by like-minded, sports management executives, coaches, and administrators, as they are dedicated to our mission to provide the best experiences and opportunities for their athletes. We currently have a superb club and leadership team with our partners at Washington East Surf. The addition of Western Washington Surf shows we are the premium and authentic youth organization throughout the entire state. While both clubs are independent, I am excited to see the opportunity for collaboration while providing our brand and resources to ensure we are the top soccer destination in the Pacific Northwest.”
“This marks a significant milestone in our organization’s history, and we are thrilled to join the Surf Nation family,” says Adam Nowland, President of Western Washington Surf. “Over the past decade, we’ve overcome numerous challenges to grow our club. Now, with the backing and strength of Surf, the possibilities are limitless. Titans FC has always been dedicated to providing quality training and mentorship in a positive environment for players of all levels. Rest assured, this commitment remains unwavering. Our organization’s enhanced capacity to offer more to players and families seeking it is the only change. Western WA Surf embodies the future of youth soccer in this region. We take pride in representing the Surf brand moving forward, ensuring we have exceptional offerings that cater to players of all levels.”
“On behalf of Washington East Surf, we warmly welcome Western Washington Surf to the Surf Nation community,” says Jerry Cardenas, Executive Director of Washington Surf East. “We look forward to working and partnering with Adam Nowland, Marlon Mejia, and the club. Surf Nation just made an awesome addition to the region, and we look forward to a long, successful relationship with plenty of opportunities for collaboration across the Pacific Northwest.”
Western Washington Surf will continue to provide the best player development experience, pathway, and opportunities within the region. Being a part of the Surf Nation network, Western Washington Surf players and families will have access to additional support on-and-off the field to ensure that we continue to be the number one soccer destination.
The top players from Western Washington Surf will have direct access to Surf Select, an unprecedented identification program built through Surf Nation.
