Age Groups
The Columbia Fall Classic is open to all competitive and classic club teams looking to round out their fall season. The primary site for this event will be the Bob Lucido Fields at Covenant Park in Ellicott City. Divisions are based on age and will be broken down into Premier - Classic levels for all age groups U8-U19, depending on the quality of teams and number of tournament entries.
Leveling The Playing Field collects used sports equipment to give to underprivileged communities where children may not have affordable access to sports equipment and programs. They’ve donated over 100,000 items to youth sports organizations allowing them to reduce the cost of entry into these programs. It has also allowed these programs to hire and train more staff for additional programs and more personalized coaching. We will be collecting used sports equipment for Leveling The Playing Field at all of our tournament locations! Drop off donations at the headquarters area or with your field marshal.
Don’t forget to use #FallClassic on all your posts and photos!
