Partner registration: Please note that if your partner does not register within 7 days of when you register, you will automatically be moved to the waitlist. Your spot in the main event will NOT be saved. If (after you are both registered and paid for the event) there is room in the main event, you will automatically be moved back to the main event. If the event has filled up in the meantime, you will remain on the waitlist until a spot opens up.

Divisions can start as early as 8am and as late as 4pm. Start times will be emailed to all players no later than Sunday, Oct 20th at 5pm. Event durations vary and will depend on how well you do: the more you win, the longer you play. Events typically last between a half day and a whole day. We recommend you keep the entire day of the event open.

Sandbagging: Please sign up for the appropriate division according to your DUPR rating. If you do not have a DUPR rating, we are trusting that you self rate appropriately. We reserve the right to move players to appropriate divisions based on DUPR rating and director discretion. You must sign up for the event based on the higher rated partner. For example, a team of player 1 = DUPR 3.20 and player 2 DUPR = 3.67 must sign up for the 3.50-3.99 event.

We will send all players the final schedule of events, format of play, and all the final details and logistics of the tournament no later than Sunday, Oct 20th at 5pm.

Registration deadline for all events is Friday, Oct 18th at 11:55pm.
