Traditions
We welcome the teams who wish to use this tournament as an enjoyable and competitive tournament experience to end the season. If it's not fun, what's the point? As with all aspects of our events, the traditions are subject to restrictions by federal, state and local health departments. We will keep you updated as we get closer to the event.
Gift Swap

This is a chance to show pride in your hometown. We recommend approximately $5-$7 per bag price range. Expect the opposing team to have 15 players. Bags will be exchanged at your first game of the tournament.

Pin Trading

The Official Pin Trading Event will be open at Opening Ceremonies.  All interested players are invited to stop by the tent at their convenience to exchange pins with members of other teams.
