Due to a scheduling conflict from the university:
- We will need to cancel U15 events. Refunds will be processed after the withdrawal deadline (Monday, March 16). If you were initially registered for U15, we suggest entering in Open D events.
- MD and WD events will begin on Saturday evening. We will do our best to prioritize players who have Saturday events to begin play Saturday evening, but it is not guaranteed.
- Friday's events will begin at 5:30pm.
- Sunday's events will begin at 2:30pm until further notice. Please expect to stay until 10:00pm on Sunday.
- As a result, we will be capping events based on entry and payment time.
