NPDL Tournament of Champions

2021 — NSDA Campus, CA/US

Qualification

Teams can qualify to the 2021 NPDL Tournament of Champions in one of three ways.

 

They can autoqualify by meeting the threshold of 42 points by March 1.  A list of tournaments that qualify for points is found on the NPDL website. Accept an autoqual bid by registering on Tabroom.com

 

They can apply for a regional at-large bid. The top five teams (in terms of tournament points) from each NPDL region that is a state, the top two teams from each state that is not an NPDL region, and the top three teams from each region in California, qualify. Apply by registering on Tabroom.com. You will be waitlisted until a decision is made on your application.

 

Teams that do not autoqualify may also apply for a wildcard at-large bid by completing the  application on the NPDL website.

 

The full qualification rules are found in Article XXII of the Board Manual.
