TOURNAMENT STRUCTURE
ALL skill levels welcome with trophies in ALL divisions (A, B, and C)
Qualifying is "group matchplay style" using a 'beat the clock' format. This means that we will complete as many rounds as we can start during a 4.5 hour clock. If a round ends BEFORE time expires, a new round will start. There will be 2 games per round.
This means you'll be playing in four player groups on multiple machines.
Playoffs/Finals will an "Amazing Race" format for the top 16 in A Division.
Playoffs/Finals for the B Division will be " Group Elimination" style for the next 8 eligible players present.
Playoffs/Finals for the C Division will be " Group Elimination" style for any remaining players that want to play.
--- ALL skill levels welcome with trophies or plaques for multiple divisions:
A Division: "The Pros"
B Division: "Best of the Rest" - restricted based on rules published on the league website so everyone can win!
C Division: Limited to players outside of the top 2500 in the IFPA rankings - so true novices can win too!
We will have prizes for the B and C division winners!
We will ALSO have random door prizes like T-Shirts, Gift Cards, and more!
PARKING (Please Read):
We have plenty of parking on our 1 acre property.
However, please DO NOT drive on the lawn to get around other cars.
I had to pay to replace 4 Sprinkler heads because of people driving on the lawn after the 2022 event tournament! 2023 went better (thankfully)!
Please stay on the concrete.
We can play "TETRIS" with the cars if needed.
A parking map will be posted before the event.
Also you can park on the street IF you can get in the grass safely.
************* BUT WAIT - THERE'S MORE!!!!!
--- Food (last year my wife cooked two meals for everyone - no promises of that, depends on how things go, but we'll provide something good).
--- Non-alcoholic drinks will be provided and alcohol is welcomed in your bring your own.
--- Also there's a Pot Luck for those that also want to help out and bring food, side items, and deserts!
--- A list of the available silent auction items will be posted about 2-3 weeks before the event (maybe sooner if I can get to it).
--- This event benefits from some wonderful sponsors. Please support our sponsors.
