This event is for coaches and teams only, no spectators. We will be requiring masks to be worn while in the building and will be practicing social distancing whenever possible.

Early Bird Registration will be used this year.
Note: The first two events selected will count toward Early Bird and cannot be changed once used.

State spots will most likely be added to this event toward the end of October, first of November.

Volunteers for this event will be both in-person and virtual.

Skills matches will run in at the same time as tournaments, this will be a team's responsibility to sign up for time slots if interested in skills.

We will hold the Alliances from 4-500 with awards to immediately follow, the event concludes after the awards ceremony.

Here is the link for the sign-up genius to sign up for your time slot for inspections and check-in. This is important to help us keep everyone socially distanced as we begin this event.
