Max’s team ended up in 4th place for the AYSO Area 10W.  Area 10W covers north Ventura county and south Santa Barbara county, including:

• Ventura
• Camarillo
• Santa Paula
• Santa Barbara
• Ojai
• South Oxnard & Port Heuneme
• Fillmore
• North Oxnard & El Rio
• Carpinteria

I was not able to figure out how many under-10 boys teams were in Area 10W, but I know that Carp had 10 teams and Santa Barbara had 42.  Santa Barbara has a couple weeks of tournament play to select the 2 teams that will go to the Area playoffs.  I imagine that Ventura and Oxnard have similar numbers to Santa Barbara.  Whatever the actual number, the initial pool of teams was very large and to advance to 4th place was quite an accomplishment.
