This is a 5-man event. Participation is limitted to teams of eligible players from the same college or high school. Eligible players must be full time undergraduate, graduate or high school students. There are limitted exceptions for combined teams from multiple schools and students on internships, coops and other approved leaves of absence, but approval must be obtained in advance from the NCPA President. There will be Varsity and JV college divisions. JV players must be freshmen or sophomores or have less than one year of tournament experience.

Prizes: Trophies, 1st through 4th, and one monstrous travelling Championship Cup. Other prizes will be raffled off as available.

Warning: Poor behavior will *NOT* be tolerated. Players unable to respect themselves and others will be asked to leave and they and their teams may face further disciplinary action. We actively maintain the best competitive environment for our players and referees.

Vendors wishing to attend the event should contact NCPA President Chris Raehl at raehl311@yahoo.com or at (715)720-9131. Each 5-man team represents tens to hundreds of recreational club players at their schools. These teams and clubs actively recruit and train new players for the sport and run their own recreational, tournament and scenario events.
