Tucson Holiday Tip-Off

Put the Annual Tucson Holiday Tip-Off on your annual tournament calendar.

2010 Dates: Revised: Tentative dates are Saturday-Sunday, December 11-12, 2010 - will be confirmed soon

History: In December, 1993, Sporting Chance created and hosted the very first competitive youth basketball tournament in Tucson. Since then, the annual Tucson Holiday Tip-Off has become a Southern Arizona tradition, as many youth club teams use it to "tip-off" their club season.

General Facts: The Tucson Holiday Tip-Off is held every year, one or two weekends before Christmas. Games begin Saturday morning and conclude Sunday early evening. Teams arre guaranteed a minimum of 4 games, We typcially attract 40-60 teams. Age divisions are Boys 9u-14u, and Girls 14u & 12u. We use AAU eligibility rules, except we allow unlimited grade exceptions. We typcially start marketing and open registration 6-8 weeks before the tournament.

Due to limited facility space and an efficient two-day format which guarantees all teams at least 4 games, this tournament sells-out every year. Make sure you are on our mailing list so you do not miss your chance to register. Email us at director@sportingchance.org to get on the mailing list.

We hope you will add the annual Sporting Chance Holiday Tip-Off to your annual tournament schedule.
