MARCH 7-9, 2025

This year marks the 27th anniversary of the Phoenix Children's  Ostrich Festival Tournament presented by RSL-AZ. The tournament is held each March to coincide with the city of Chandler's Ostrich Festival which draws over 250,000 visitors. While most of the country is still cold, wet and sometimes snowy, we enjoy beautiful warm sunny weather that is perfect for soccer. The valley also hosts 15 major league baseball teams during this time. Come early and catch a few games of baseball before a weekend of soccer.

We plan to host 450 U7-U19 teams from all over the state of Arizona as well as New Mexico, Nevada, and California, and several other states plus Canada. We offer a 3 game minimum with many teams playing 4 games.
