Thank you, Karen...I know that it is not easy to manage registration for so many teams and you do it admirably!

Cheers,
Brittany

The assignments are organized both by team number and by tournament so you can use either list.  Please make sure to look for your team number as a number of teams may share the same team name.

We had 508 teams register for regional tournaments and were able to place just under 81% of them (410 teams) into their first choice.  That being said, there were about 25 teams that we were not able to place in any of their top three choices.  If you did not get into one of your choices, please know that all three of your choices were full before I assigned your team and I did my best to try to match something as close as possible.  Please don’t email us asking to switch you into one of your original choices because those tournaments are full and do not have any space remaining.
