We plan to have the same events in 50+ and 60+ age groups as well excluding the 4.0 skill level. Minimum of 4 entries required for each event. If there is any level that has less participants, we will merge the age groups within the same skill level first. If there are still less entries, we will move them to the next higher skill level event. 

Partners: Each player needs to register on the website or on the mobile app separately. You can sign up even if you don't have a partner and select the partner later. 

Tshirts: Commemorative Tournament Tshirts will be available for purchase at the event for $25. All proceeds from Tshirt sales will help benefit the Hearts and Hangars Community Program. Hearts and Hangers program is a community-centered initiative designed to provide free clothing to individuals and families in need. Through this program, Successful Connections seeks to ensure that everyone, regardless of their circumstances, has access to clean, appropriate, and seasonally fitting attire.

Water and Snacks: We encourage you to bring your own water bottles. Water dispensers will be available at 17 Springs. 

Match Format: For all events we will hold a round robin bracket that will seat a single elimination bracket final. All round robin matches are played for 11 points, win by 2 points. All playoffs and championship matches will be to 15 points, win by 2 points. 

Brackets: All events will begin with Round Robin. We use them for seeding and elimination as needed. The top 4 teams in each group will play in the single elimination bracket.
