To make sure that this is a pleasant experience for all please note the following COVID Rules & Requirements:

MASKS ARE REQUIRED INDOORS. Regardless of vaccination status, we will require people to continue to wear masks that fit and filter well in all indoor spaces (classrooms, hallways, etc). The spread of COVID-19 continues to be a significant risk for many in Los Angeles County, so we will be taking as much precaution as possible at our tournament. N95 masks are available in case you forget, or your mask becomes unusable over the course of the day.

DAILY HEALTH CHECK REQUIRED. Please complete your LAUSD Daily Pass prior to arriving on campus. You will need to select "South Gate High School" as the location, not your school. https://dailypass.lausd.net/

PLEASE HAVE PROOF OF VACCINATION AVAILABLE. In alignment with Los Angeles City ordinances, we will require tournament patrons to demonstrate proof of full vaccination against COVID-19 before entering indoor spaces.
