Qualifying Tournaments

Celebrating after competition

NorCal Qualifying Tournaments

In Northern California, we run competitions based on a Qualifying Tournament model which helps make tournaments more accessible to all teams. Teams can participate in the Qualifying Tournament of their choice, subject to availability. Teams can choose a tournament based on the most convenient time or location, rather than having to compete on a specific date or at a specific venue.
