The style of the event will be different than anything you’ve experienced in the past and will guarantee 9 matches IF we max out the event. We’re only accepting 32 people so sign up immediately at our website under tournaments to lock in your spot. As always, money talks which means your spot is locked in if paid through our website.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">This event is for <b class="">ALL LEVELS</b> in the same event. The theory is that by seeding round 1 groups from 1 to 32 into next round upper and lower groups two times, you’ll end up having your last 3 matches be battles with your peers. Should be fun and depending on it’s result, we may run this as a sanctioned USATT Main Event tournament in the future.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Registration is - $15 for all Members (League OR Monthly Open Play) / $30 for all Non-Members</div><div class=""><a href="https://www.gvttc.com/tournaments" class="">Signup Here ——></a> <a href="http://www.gvttc.com/tournaments" class="">www.gvttc.com/tournaments</a></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">The format of the event is below.</div><div class=""><img apple-inline="yes" id="86EA21BF-2609-43BF-B67E-2B325753F724" src="cid:26239F3B-FD63-4D19-A18D-3E49C0105C0A" class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Round Robin 1: is seeded normally to create 8 groups of 4</div><div class="">Round Robin 2: splits the top 2 finishers of each round 1 group into an upper group and the bottom 2 finishers of each round 1 group into a lower group</div><div class="">Round Robin 3: Takes positional finishers in upper and lower round 2 finishers and pulls them into a final positional finals round robin.
