REGISTRATION OPENS 8/1 AT MIDNIGHT EST
NEW THIS YEAR: We have added a 5th division (Elite) to the 15's and 16's age group ONLY, this is due to the high volume of interest in these divisions. Teams will be able to register for Open, Premier/Elite, and Club/Classic. Only teams in Premier/Elite and Club/Classic will be moved into separate divisions, teams registered in Open will remain in Open.
With the limited number of 18's teams who registered in year's past and the overwhelming numbers of teams who are interested in participating in the 12-17u divisions, we have decided to not have an 18's division for this event.
