In an effort to give ORC junior players the opportunity to compete, we are organizing a series of tournaments throughout the year. Players will be guaranteed a minimum of 2 matches during each tournament. All competitors must be available to play between 4:00-9:00pm on Friday and Saturday as well as 2:00-6:00pm on Sunday on an event weekend. Entries may be limited if necessary. Events may be combined in the case of insufficient entries. All matches will be 1 hour in duration.

Through the tournament year, all competitors’ results from each event will go towards a year end “ranking”. The players who finish the year #1 in their respective divisions will win prizes. All competitors will receive a t-shirt (1 per year, not per event) and there will be weekly prizes for sportsmanship, effort, etc.
