Open to boys and girls of all ages and experience levels, this festival-style tournament will feature fast-paced competition, team spirit, and family-friendly fun, all set on the beautiful shores of the Skagit Sea.
“This is more than a tournament—it’s a celebration of youth sports and community,” said Chris Bellecourt, Association Director of Youth Sports, YMCA of Snohomish County. “We designed the Clash at Camp Casey to be a bridge from summer to fall, offering a competitive and inclusive environment for kids to grow, connect, and get ready for the season ahead.”
