Overall

This is an official Stern Army launch party for Stern Pinball's latest release by John Borg - Star Wars: The Fall of the Empire!

Doors open at 5pm and the tournament starts at 7pm. The format is Max Matchplay where every player plays 14 matches. At the end of qualifying, the top 8/12/16 players will move onto the PAPA style 3 game finals.

The top seed in each group gets to pick 2 of the 3 games played in the finals for their group with one of the games being Star Wars.

We will have a variety of prizes that will be given out at random at the end of qualifying along with a Stern Pinball Grand Champion plaque for the winner.

We hope to see you here!
