Blue Chip Juniors

Welcome!

Blue Chip Juniors Teams,

On behalf of Kings Hammer SBD, we would like to welcome you to the Cincinnati Area for the 2026 Blue Chip Juniors. This year, Kings Hammer SBD is partnering with the American Cancer Society to bring the fight against breast cancer to the fields and create opportunities for our entire soccer community to learn, honor, remember, and make an impact. Please see below for all of the ways you can make a difference, raise awareness and participate in this initiative throughout the weekend.

In this event guide, you will find all the information you need for this year’s event including links to schedules, facility maps, and local area attractions to visit while you are in town. Please take a moment to look through the guide. We hope you have a chance to enjoy all that Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky have to offer while you are here.

We look forward to hosting you at this year’s 2026 Blue Chip Juniors!

MAKING STRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER

We invite all teams to wear pink as their home jersey in support of this important cause. You can create new pink jerseys for the event, wear pink socks, add pink shorts or all of the above. However, we do ask that you only wear your pink when you are listed as the home team to avoid conflicts with your opponent. 

The American Cancer Society will also be on-site at the Warren County Sports Park on Saturday (10 am – 2 pm) and Sunday (9 am – 1 pm). They plan to have a tent, cancer screening/healthy living information, breast cancer statistics/how people can get involved, giveaways, and a tribute moment for people to be able to honor and remember their loved ones. They will also have a step and repeat and an inflatable pink chair for photo opportunities. 

Lastly, we are inviting all Blue Chip Juniors teams, players, coaches, and families to join the Kings Hammer SBD Making Strides team and help us fundraise in support of breast cancer research, patient support, and programs that provide hope to those who need it most.

Awards

Awards will be given to the Champion and Finalist in each of the divisions after the Championship Match. Please send one representative from your team to the headquarters tents at Warren County Sports, Voice of America and Town & Country. There will be a green awards flag located in front of the tent. There will also be pop up banners and backdrops available to take pictures.

If your team is in a Group of 5, the top two teams in the bracket will be awarded medals. We will do our very best to get those to you while still at the complex, however, there may be a situation that another game in your bracket will still need to be played in order to determine Champion and Finalist.

Athletic Trainers

Trainers will be located at Warren County Sports Park, Voice of America and Town & Country throughout the weekend in case your child needs to be evaluated for an injury. They will be positioned throughout the park under event tents with “Medical” flags next to them. If a player should need any pregame taping it is the player/teams responsibility to provide necessary supplies and it will be at the trainers discretion on whether or not they will be attending to preventative measures.

Learn more about OrthoCincy Orthopaedics & Sports Medicine and the services they provide to athletes. 

Weather Updates

In the event of inclement weather, we will inform all Coaches and Team Managers as listed in the GotSport system if anything changes from a weather or field standpoint for the weekend. Please make sure to update your team contact information if you have not already done so.
