The maximum number of participants will be 50 teams. Teams are accepted by WSC on a first
come/first served basis. However, in order to ensure that as many schools as possible will have
the opportunity to participate in this event, a total of six teams per school may be initially
registered. There must be at least two Junior teams and two Senior teams in the initial
registration. After February 26th, registered schools may request extra teams depending on the
number of spots available. WSC, however, reserves the right to balance numbers in the Junior
and Senior events.

Both days of the tournament run from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Lunch and dinner are provided
each day. Snacks will be available upon arrival. Participants are requested to bring their own
water bottles.
We look forward to welcoming you to this exciting event!
