Adversity teams have success at the California Classic.
The Classic features the top teams nationally, preparing for the National Championships in Minnesota. Predominantly California teams compete in it as well as the top clubs from the east and mid west. West coast teams dominate the medal rounds at Nationals, so the opportunity to compete against them is the best way for Adversity to prepare.
