ASHEBORO – The second of two major youth tournaments at Zoo City Sportsplex is slated for this weekend.
City officials said that there could be thousands of visitors to Asheboro, particularly on Zoo Parkway and surrounding areas.
On Saturday and Sunday, the Carolina Pumpkin Classic for lacrosse is slated. This competition includes boys’ and girls’ teams in the 9-and-under through 14-and-under age divisions.
The tournaments include three divisions on the high school level. All teams are guaranteed to play at least five games.
Last weekend, the Velocity Super Cup was held for boys’ and girls’ soccer. Those tournaments were geared for 11-and-under through 18-and-under divisions as organized by Raleigh-based Carolina Velocity FC.
All eight fields at the sportsplex are in use for these tournaments. A grand opening for the sportsplex was held earlier this year.
