Players who register under the Federal Employee Bracket are REQUIRED to enter their Federal Employee Badge and ID information at the time of Registration AND present their badge and ID at Check-In on Day 1 of the Tournament.
I have a full team of 12 players, does each player need to register?
If you are registering with a FULL team of 12, only ONE person needs to register. The person who registers will need to provide each player's full names, jersey size and jersey numbers. The ENTIRE registration fee for 12 players will be due at the time of registration.
I have a team of 11 players and 1 of them is a Federal Employee. Can I register my team under the Federal Employee Bracket?
No - unless EVERY player is a Federal Employee, you would have to register your team under the 'Open Civilian Bracket' and you would not be able to receive the discount for registration.
