The Corpus Christi weekend offers a great opportunity for a compact football trip. As Corpus Christi always falls on a Thursday, teams in regions where it is a public holiday — and where taking the Friday off is possible — can turn it into a long weekend away.
A football tournament over Corpus Christi is therefore particularly suitable for teams that want to enjoy several days of tournament football together without planning a longer holiday trip. Here you can find the latest SOCCACUP tournaments taking place around Corpus Christi.
