We ask that you make sure to be present in the venue at least 60 minutes prior your division start time as well, fast matches or short forms sometimes allow us to get a head start on certain divisions. You can also tell when your matches are coming up by checking the tab on your mobile device during the competition.  Please note, if you are not present at the time of your match, you will be disqualified from that match.

After the 12:30 P.M. deadline on April 23rd to edit registration information, competitors that do not have anyone in their division will be combined into another appropriate division.  The goal is to provide every competitor with the best competition available.

No refunds will be given for this event.

As this is our first time using Smoothcomp, we are going to remove the requirement for day of weigh-ins.  Instead we are going to trust athletes to register in the correct weight class.  If you find day of the event you are way off your weight class, please let us know at check in so we can move you into the correct weight class. 

**Note: if you weight class does not have enough competitors in it, we will move competitors to create as many matches as possible for people while maintaining fair competition. **
