During internal review of the Local Control position I identified an airspace violation. Training was taking place but it was a slow session. Local control instructed an aircraft to extend downwind without restriction then told him to turn base too late so that he slopped over into an adjacent airport's Class D airspace. No point out was given by Local Control to the adjacent tower.I have sent this to management; but my manager has instructed me not to file Mandatory Occurrence Reports on losses identified during internal reviews. I am completing this report to comply with my requirements to report airspace violations. The ATCS tried to correct the issue by telling the pilot to turn base; but it was too late. The Controller should have given a point out to the Tower. That would have remedied the situation.
LGB Tower Quality Control Specialist reported he discovered an airspace violation event during an internal review. The Tower Manager reportedly instructed the Specialist to not report the violation.
