Field at 28. 2 open spots.

Our field is over 1/2 full for the initial 24 team cap. I've sent a reminder email out in case I missed anyone with my original, pre-1st day of school message.

Please e-mail me if you need a registration form for your treasurer; a simple email with number of teams and claimed discounts is all I really need.

This tournament has received Gold certification status from PACE, so the top 20% of the field will qualify for PACE NSC Nationals in Chicago June 4-5 2016 in Chicago.

Also, we currently stand at 18 teams which means that 3 teams will qualify for NAQT Nationals May 27-29 2016 in Dallas. If we get to 22-24 teams total, 4 teams will then qualify!!

We currently stand at 28 teams (22V/6JV). We are asking any additional teams that sign up to commit to bringing a reader.

SFT is just about full, but there's one spot left (we'd be asking that team to bring a reader). We have 29 teams, two maybes, so we'll either go 30 or 32. Let me know if you're interested: [email protected].
