UPDATE as of 5/17/2020
Due to the unforseen circumstances of Covid-19, we have had to make the very difficult decision to cancel the 2020 Butch Ducharme Memorial Sun & Surf Tournament. We kept hope as long as we possibly could but with Huntington Beach City ordinances as well as AYSO's recommendation that all Tournaments be canceled through June, at a minimum, we have had to make this unfortunate decision. More importantly, the health and safety of the players, families and staff is paramount during these difficult times.
We will begin refunding the registration fees for those teams that have already sent in their fees either by check or credit card.
Thank you for your understanding. We absolutely cannot wait to see all of you at next year's Tournament which will be held on Father's Day weekend, June 19th and June 20th. Please mark your calendars and we will see you then.
In the meantime, Region 55 wishes the best to you and your families. Please stay safe.

Butch Ducharme passed away suddenly on Friday September 11, 2015, leaving behind his wife and three daughters. He was a loving husband to his wife Mona and a proud father to Olivia, Madeline and Gabrielle.
Butch touched countless lives through everything he did in the community - always with a smile on his face.
He meant so much to the children and families of AYSO and made a huge impact in many lives over his 16 years of service as a coach, referee and Commissioner of Region 55.
