Registration for the 2025 Lions Tourney opens on August 30, 2024.  MAKE SURE YOU GET A RECEIPT

It is important that you follow all instructions and FINISH THE REGISTRATION PROCESS including getting a receipt.

Too many teams go through the process BUT DO NOT FINISH the process. I have no way of knowing that you want to come unless you FINISH REGISTRATION PROCESS.

IF YOU DO NOT GET AN EMAIL RECIEPT....THEN YOU HAVE NOT FINISHED THE REGISTRATION PROCESS AND ARE NOT REGISTERED.

TAKE AND SAVE A SCREEN SHOT OF YOUR EMAIL REGISTRATION CONFIRMATION

NEW CIF SECTION RULES STILL ATTACH A SINGLE POINT PER GAME. SO THE LIONS TOURNEY WILL GIVE EACH TEAM FOUR GAMES. BRACKET WINNERS WILL GO TO A CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. ALL OTHER TEAMS WILL PLAY A CONSOLATION GAME ON THE FINAL DAY.

FEES ARE $600.00  Fees are payable online by credit card or by check. Make checks payable to SD Lions Welfare Foundation, 310 Market Street, San Diego CA. 92101

The Lions Tourney has always prided itself on having teams PLAY for the Championship on day four.  However, due to CIF changes and San Diego school district changes, it has gotten exceedingly difficult to schedule 70 plus games on the fly on Wednesday night. Accordingly, as an experiment only the OPEN, CLASSIC AND PREMIER DIVISIONS will play for a championship. All other divisions will have the fourth game previously  scheduled. Champions will be decided on team records and tie breakers if necessary.  ALL TEAMS MUST PLAY FOUR GAMES.  We will do our best to get visiting teams out early on Thursday but no promises can be made due to field availability and umpire availability issues.

TOURNAMENT WILL REMAIN THE SAME 

2025 $600.00 TOURNAMENT FEE IS $600.00
