San Diego Surf Academy Madrigal GU11 emerged as champions of the 2015 Disney Pre-Season Kickoff, held at the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex in Orlando, Fla., the weekend of Aug. 21-23.

The girls faced tough competition from across the nation, including top-tier teams from Florida and New York. Surf went undefeated in pool play, earning them a spot in the final match against the Long Island Rough Riders.

With an exciting go-ahead goal in the last minutes of the game, Surf won the championship match 2-1, overcoming a fierce competitor and brutal heat and humidity. Congratulations to Coach Danny Madrigal and the GU11 Surf Girls.
