    • HOTELS

       

      • Reservation deadline:
        August 1, 2024
        (Thursday by 11:59 PM EST)

      • All room reservations must be made by the deadline.

    • To ensure their place in the tournament, all out-of-town teams must book hotel reservations through THE TOURNAMENT OFFICE, Inc.
      Failure to comply with this requirement may result in the team forfeiting their acceptance into the tournament. 
      This hotel link is for everyone who needs a room for the tournament.  We encourage all teams to book their rooms immediately to reserve the same hotel.  All rooms are first come, first served, so team managers are not required, nor can they block out rooms to make it fair for everyone coming to the tournament. This is designed to protect the hotel(s) inventory and to prevent teams from blocking out too many rooms that take away from other teams.  We appreciate your understanding and wish you all much success in the tournament!
