Communication and Adult Supervision

All schools are required to have a responsible and school-approved adult available during the tournament should an issue arise. We will attempt to contact the adults listed as the adult contact(s) in tabroom. If we are unable to reach an adult within a reasonable time, or if the adult contact listed turns out to be a student, all entries from the school may be disqualified.

Please note that students should only be contacting the tournament regarding missing persons, round-related emergencies, or equity concerns. All other communications should come to tab through a coach or designated adult.
