If any women’s finalists are in the classics tournament still at 11 am, we will push back the women's final start time to the earliest possible start time without conflict. If the women’s finals are not concluded at 1:15 pm, we will push back any affected matches in the Main A or B finals. Participating in women’s finals WILL NOT block you from playing any other finals. Tournament director is Brianna Reynolds.

Operation Fee
•The only money other than the $1 IFPA fee and $5 Stern Circuit Fee per player coming out of the total will be an operation fee. This tournament takes a great deal of time, effort and money to put on every year. Included in the operation fee is the cost of the trophies, prizes and other miscellaneous costs associated with running the tournament. 40% of the amount brought in will be used for these purposes.

EVERYTHING IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE. Feel free to contact me personally for any questions.
