Hi everyone, we were just made aware of another team pulling from the event. The schedule is release with updates. We will play one pool into a bracket. This will still allow everyone to get in their 3gg and also get everyone out of the dome earlier. Any question- see Tanya at the table!

Good morning! We have a slight adjustment to the schedule, please check it this morning prior to departure to the Dome. The bracket was also adjusted to reflect 5 teams. We’re hopeful there will be no further changes moving forward. Thank you all and have a great day!

Hi everyone I apologize. We will be reverting back to the original schedule. I will upload in the next five minutes. There was a miscommunication in one of the team's organization, and they will still be attending the event.

Thank you everyone for being so flexible and accommodating. The updated schedule is now posted. All teams will play two games, and then we’ll move into a different bracket format due to the uneven number of teams. We’ll continue to monitor the weather in the morning. Please make sure you’re checking the app throughout the day for any updates. Drive safely!
