In divisions where a set partner is required, you may register and identify your partner or request "Need partner". Your partner must register within five days of your registration, or the team will be moved to the waiting list. When the identified partner registers after the five-day grace period, the team will automatically move from the waiting list back to the active list if there is a slot available and both players have paid.
If a player needs a partner, the team will automatically move from the wait list to the active list once a partner is identified, registers, and both players have paid if there is an available slot to move to. Your spot in the tournament is not guaranteed until you and your partner have registered and all fees have been paid in full.
Gold, silver, and bronze medals will be awarded in each event.
There are no referees. Matches are self-monitored.
The daily admission fee for non-members of Gregg Park will be waived for both participants and spectators.
