Requests
All field requests will be accepted from recognized and qualified tournament promoters. Big League Dreams will review all requests received by the deadline date. Priority will be given to promoters who have a continuous proven track record of success with Big League Dreams. References should be included with any date request from promoters that are new to Big League Dreams. Be sure to include any additional data regarding the tournament that might aid Big League Dreams’ decision-making process. Priority for requests will be given to promoters that have demonstrated a proven success and maintain a continued support of our Cathedral City, Jurupa/Riverside, Chino Hills and West Covina facilities.
Field requests will be accepted from independent and association promoters. Members of associations should submit their date request through their director unless prior arrangements have been made with Big League Dreams. Association directors are encouraged to copy this information to all their promoters so they may be made aware of the Big League Dreams requirements.
Tournament Contract
Upon awarding of dates, all promoters will be required to sign a Big League Dreams Tournament Contract. Until such contract is fully executed, all dates are held on a tentative basis only. This agreement will include possible field restrictions for the awarded date, souvenir sales restrictions, deadlines for getting information to the park general manager regarding game times, minimum field guarantee, insurance, deposit, etc.

2) The item must have a tournament logo/design that is specific to that event.

Any other item sales or outside vendor participation must be approved at the time of the Tournament Contract signing and are subject to additional charges.
All tournament sponsorships must be approved prior to the tournament to avoid any conflicts with existing Big League Dreams partners.
