General Info

Teams invited to this competition cannot be qualified for the State competition prior to January 7th.

This event is an INVITATIONAL and teams must register on the Waitlist to be considered for this event,

Registered teams who qualify for States prior to the invitational will not automatically be removed from the competition. We ask that teams who qualify for States prior to this event consider stepping down to let an unqualified team from the waitlist take their spot, but we will not require any team to do so. 

UPDATE:  We have combined elementary and middle school teams in one BLENDED event.  

The event will showcase 3 raised competition fields, 2 skills fields, and 2 practice fields.   

 

FOOD: 

  • Lunch will be provided to all participants...pizza, chips & bottled water. 
  • There will be a hospitality room provided for advisors and volunteers.
  • Concessions will be available with drinks, snacks, and a selection of hot items.

MATCHES & JUDGING

  • Each team will have six qualifying matches. The top 20 teams (10 pairs of teams) will advance to Tournament Finals.
  • Please familiarize yourself and your teams with the SLAPSHOT official rules. The GAME MANUAL is a good place to start! 

MISC. INFO

  • All pit tables have access to power. Please bring surge protector/power strips to make sure you have enough outlets for your team.
  • We will have a dedicated WiFi network available for teams to access during this event. This was set up specifically for teams that will need access to online programming software during the event. Please make sure your school laptops are set up correctly in order for you to have access while you are away from your school building.
