The tournament committee will consult on-site certified athletic trainers to determine if 2 water breaks are required. PLAYER SAFETY WILL BE THE TOP PRIORITY IN ALL DECISIONS.

PROVING GROUND AWARDS STAGE:  All finalist teams.
All teams reaching a "final" should report to the PROVING GROUNDS AWARDS STAGE following their "final" match. Both champions and finalists will receive medals. 

All the best to all teams this weekend.

EMAIL UPDATE SEPT 4, 8:45 PM CST

Team Leaders:

Due to water line break the 4v4 field configuration has changed. 

There are now currently 2X 4v4 FIELD #4 WEST.   We do not have markers for these fields other than 4W.  
4W1 is the SOUTHERN MOST FIELD
4W2 is the NORTHERN MOST FIELD 

There is MINIMAL SPACE between the two fields. 

There is 1X 4v4 FIELD #4 EAST. 

We are in a process of updating field maps and schedule names now. 

WE HAVE PLACED MULTIPLE HYDRATION STATIONS THROUGHOUT THE FACILITY in SIDE BEFORE SELF TENTS.   These are for athletes to refill their water.  We will do our best to keep these filled throughout the day. 

Thank you.
