Tournament Overview


Registration for this tournament opens on August 03, 2023

Start Date: December 02, 2023
End Date: December 03, 2023

Starts at 2 pm, check in at 1:30 pm, limited to 100 entries. After 5 of the 10 qualifying rounds, there will be a 30-min break. There will be another 30-min break after qualifying is over. Log into http://Matchplay.events/ to see your groupings, enter results for you group, and follow along with the event.

Qualifying will be 10 rounds of single game matchplay (3 and 4 player groups). First round groupings are Random. After that, you will be grouped with players that have a similar number of points. Player order will be balanced.

Scoring will be IFPA which awards 7,5,3,1 points for 4 player groups, and 7,4,1 scoring for 3 player groups.

The top 24 players after the 10 qualifying rounds will make A finals. The next 16 players will make B finals. Qualifying will end approximately at 7:30pm and finals will start at 8pm and will finish approximately at 11:30pm. There will be no IFPA ranking restrictions on making the finals. Top 100 IFPA players at the start of the event will be restricted from winning prize money only. If you forego playing in B division, you will be placed as last place in B division or 40th overall.

A division Finals - top 8 will get a bye. 16 will play in the quarter finals. Each group will play 3 games using the same IFPA scoring as qualifying. The top two players from each group will advance to the next round. First two rounds will be played Saturday night and the final two rounds will be played on Sunday starting at 10am and finishing approximately at 2pm Sunday. The final 8 will play in the semifinals with the same rules with the top two from each group advancing to the final 4. The final four will play 3 more games to decide the winner.

The three games played each round of finals are chosen by picking a bank from the list which will have one game from various eras. The top seed of the group will choose the bank of games. The player positions are predetermined and are as follows:

Game 1: P1 - Seed 4, P2 - Seed 3, P3 - Seed 2, P4 - Seed 1
Game 2: P1 - Seed 4, P2 - Seed 3, P3 - Seed 1, P4 - Seed 2
Game 3: P1 - Seed 4, P2 - Seed 2, P3 - Seed 1, P4 - Seed 3

B division finals - Same format as A division. B Division will play along with A Division and will not be able to play the same banks that were already chosen by A. See A finals above for the order in which B groups choose.

Payouts will be to the top 4 players from A and top 4 players from B. After a $500 show fee, IFPA fees, and trophy expenses, the payouts will be as follows:
