Tournament Site
Moscone Recreation Center is located at 1800 Chestnut St. San Francisco, 94123. There are four courts, newly resurfaced. There are no warm up courts available as we need all four for the tournament. In close walking distance you'll find an incredible variety of offerings for food, beverage, local shopping, grocery stores, even a public library next door! Moscone Recreation Center has a large Clubhouse, indoor and outdoor basketball facilities, two children's playgrounds, a dog walking park, four softball fields, a putting green, and a beuatiful view of Golden Gate Bridge. It's truly a spectacular place to spend the day.
