Youth Tournaments

State Approved Tournaments

There are many opportunities for Youth teams to participate in tournaments and jamborees throughout our state. You can rumble at the Red Stick, Sweep the Swamp, or just chill at the Big Easy. To see the tournaments hosted by our local clubs please go to our State Approved Tournaments. Tournaments are classified by age and playing level (i.e. Recreational, Division 1 or Premier). Some Tournaments offer Jamborees for players who are below the U10 age group. Competitive Tournaments are limited to U10 and above.
