General Info

We look forward to hosting you at our Fall tournament. We will be judging digital notebooks and have in-person interviews for judging.  Concession information will be updated via email but there are also several fast food options within walking distance.

9/9/25 Update: We currently have 6 middle school teams. I will expand the tournament to accommodate 4 more middle school teams so we can give an excellence award to a middle school team. Put your team on the wait list. Even if your team is not a middle school team, if you want in and the tournament is full put your team on the wait list.

If the tournament is full and you would like to participate, please put your team on the waiting list. We may expand the tournament to include some more teams.

Payment is due within 2 weeks of registering unless registering after 10/13. After 10/13 payment is due on 10/27/25 unless registering after 10/27/25. If registering after 10/27/25, payment is due at time of registration.

If teams do not pay on time, they are subject to potential removal from the tournament.

Refund and Payment Policies

If the Event Partner cancels the event: 

Baring the death of the event partner or some sort of emergency that causes the government to say we cannot do the tournament, we will not cancel, but if that happens, we will refund everything except the $5 fee charged to us by RECF or give you the choice to have the total amount apply to a future tournament that we host.

If a Coach/Mentor completes registration for the event then chooses to withdraw or not attend:

Please be sure you plan to attend before signing up for the tournament. We do not do refunds. If you are able to find a team to compete in your place, you can have them pay you and take your spot if you give us notice a minimum of 3 days before the event starts.

Payment Deadline is October 25th, 2025. Not paying by this date may mean that your team may be placed on the waitlist to make room for another team.

If teams do not pay on time, they are subject to potential removal from the tournament.
