SCINNY 2026

SCINNY 2026 is a long-standing tournament (celebrating its 18th event!) in the Cincinnati area, providing USAU-sanctioned competition for regional teams to participate. We use this event as a fundraiser for our local YCC teams, Flying Pig (U20 boys), Bullseye (U20 girls), and Flying Piglet (U17 boys), to assist them financially as they travel to the YCC Championships, this year in Aurora, Colorado. 

This is our fourth year with a youth club division, and we are excited to offer more regional opportunities for our youth club teams.

Team Bids

To enter your team into this tournament, please use the Bid page to submit your info in the form. Your bids are not confirmed in the event until your bid fee is paid. The total number of team bids depends on the division, but here are my goals:
Women's Division: 8 teams
Men's Division: 12 teams
Youth Club: as many as we can get! In 2025, we had 4 U20 Boys Teams, 3 U17 Boys Teams, and 3 U20 Girls Teams.  

What We'll Provide:

• USAU Sanctioned Tournament
• High-quality grass fields, with close access to parking, restrooms, water stations, and snacks at tournament central.
• Bagels, fruit, granola bars, fruit snacks, chips/crackers, and more!
  • Sandwich box lunch ordering for teams
• A Medical trainer on site for the whole event.
• A host of local volunteers to make this a great event.

A few policies to be aware of:  

• In the event of rain, storms, or extreme heat/humidity, we will always lean towards protecting the players' safety and the fields we are renting. This may involve moving fields, delaying or rescheduling rounds, combining the event into 1 day, or canceling the event altogether.
  • In the event of severe tournament adjustments, we will be fully communicative and try to give as much advance notice as we can. Please be aware that the full bid fee may not be able to be fully refunded due to weather, as there are still costs we will have to incur to prepare for the event, with food purchasing, field rentals, etc.

• Teams dropping out 2 weeks or more before the event will be given a full refund.

• If a team drops within 2 weeks of the event and no replacement team can be found, that team will only receive a full or partial refund at the discretion of the Tournament Director.

We look forward to seeing you this summer!
