Our tournament is back and it's bigger, better, and more inclusive than ever!
The Philadelphia Falcons, Philadelphia’s premier LGBTQIA+ soccer nonprofit, has teamed up with community partners to sponsor our 14th Liberty Bell Classic soccer tournament on Saturday, October 26th, 2024 in West Philadelphia. This outdoor, all-skill levels tournament is designed to bring together LGBTQIA+ and allied soccer players and organizations from near and far to celebrate diversity and unity in the beautiful game. We would love to have you join us by fielding a team or as a free agent.
Don't miss out on what promises to be an unforgettable weekend of spirited competition, camaraderie, and inclusive fun.
