The 5-day tournament will feature 24 teams split into 2 brackets - a Gold Division and Silver Division competing in at least 3 matches.

Match sites will feature 3 artificial turf fields at Chapin, River Bluff and Memorial Stadium as well as a natural grass field at Cardinal Newman. Columbia will serve as an alternative turf field in the event of inclement weather.

The Gold and Silver Division semifinals will take place at Chapin and Memorial Stadium. The Silver Championship at 2 pm and Gold Championship at 4 pm will take place at Chapin.
