Most of the Tournaments, in which Fairmount Soccer participates, are held in the Greater Philadelphia Region but some, such the Orange Bowl tournament, are held as far away as Florida. Each team, with its coach decides on which tournaments to enter. The Fairmount Soccer Association defrays some of the registration fees of participating in tournaments, however, the bulk of the expenses, including all travel and accommodation fees must be raised by each individual team.
