This year’s tournament will have single elimination and round robin games.  Single elimination games will play best of 3 games to 21 points.  Round robin games will play 1 game to 31 points and play each team/player in their bracket.  Consolation games for single elimination divisions will be played in gym B (down the hall from the main gym).  Some round robin division games may also be played in gym B.

* All youth division games on Sunday will play as round robin games, along with the Adult Double Beginner division.
 
Registration Information: Everyone playing in the tournament must register online and sign the waiver.  Divisions are limited so register early to guarantee your space.  Registration closes February 9th or when the division is full.  Refunds will only be issued if we can fill the space. 

* For singles divisions, each person playing must register for their division. 

* For doubles divisions, one team member will register for the division, list their team member, and pay the fee.  The other team member will need to register in the doubles partners sign up for the appropriate day to fill out their information and sign the waiver.  

* Register early as divisions have filled in previous years.

Youth Divisions:  The youth single age groups and youth double beginner division are meant for players in their first couple of years of playing and competing in badminton tournaments.  If youth are more advanced than peers in their age group, have several years of consistent experience, have attended several competitions or are ranked, have placed in our tournament in previous years, or are ready for more of a challenge, they should play in the intermediate division. 

We do not have an advanced youth division, but if youth are 14 or older they can play in the open division in the B or C level.  Youth may not compete in both the youth and open division, they must pick one or the other.
