This tournament will be run on NAQT's CNS-231C set, which shares content with IS-231. For this reason, high school teams or coaches may not attend this tournament.
We are currently in the process of reserving rooms for this tournament. Teams should expect to arrive at the University of Florida at 8:45 A.M. for the opening meeting, and gameplay will begin at 9:00 A.M. I, Tiffany Zhou, will be the tournament director. Please direct any questions about this tournament to me at [email protected].
