TEAM REGISTRATION DEADLINE IS TODAY!:
Every team in every division must register via the form
available on our website. The deadline is today but since I
won't be able to collate the information you have until
tomorrow at 6pm.
--------------
Total Teams Per Night - so far
89 Monday
54 Tuesday
62 Wednesday
16 Thursday
--------------
Field space is our limiting factor. If we do not have enough
fields to accommodate teams we will have to turn some away.
Our field situation is still up in the air while we finalize
the last few.
If we are required to turn teams away we will first see who
did not register via the web page. They will be our primary
candidate. After that we are giving priority to returning
teams over new teams.
--------------
Currently we have the following teams (as of 7:30 pm) registered.
If your team is not listed I suggest you get going.
