All Divisions are round-robin; the final place in the pool is the FINAL PLACEMENT for the tournament.
Please Note: Some divisions are mixed with players from other classifications. This was done to ensure all players received four games at the tournament. Regional tournaments aim to guarantee players a minimum of four games. Look at these mixed divisions as a way to improve your gameplay.

FORMAT
BC1-BC5 and Open Divisions. Divisions may be combined due to low division registration #’s or scheduling needs.
This tourney will be all individual play.
We will run pool play, moving into medal rounds for those qualifying.
We will run a Call Room procedure and adhere as closely as possible to BISFED/USA BOCCIA rules.
New athletes without an official classification should have a reliable opinion from an experienced coach or will play in the Open Division. Please contact me directly with questions.
Medals will be awarded for the top 3 in each division.
Meals:
Lunch will be provided to registered athletes and coaches. Additional lunch tickets are available for $10/day.
The additional lunch option is provided on the registration form.
Misc:
There is potential to be a small (locked) room to be available to store basic equipment Saturday night at your own risk.
Athletes not present for matches will be scratched and a forfeit will be given to the present competitor. In the case of major changes (i.e. changes with multiple athletes in the same division), we reserve the right to adjust pools/schedule to accommodate these changes.
We do NOT have a host hotel. Plenty of hotels in the area.
