The draft schedule is online here. Feedback will be accepted until Noon on Saturday, 10/17. My hope is to send out word that the schedule is finalized by Monday morning, 10/19.
Please look over everything in detail and make sure it all makes sense.
Due a bit of possible flux in the number of teams at the event (Open may drop to 14 or 15, Female-Matching may go up to 7!), the exact game schedule will not be released until Tuesday morning, 10/20. Of course, if I am able to draft a schedule before then, I will send it out. That being said:
All teams will get at least 4 games. Most till get 5.
Games will start at ~8:30am and run until ~4:45pm.
Captain’s meeting will be at 7:45am.
As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions.

Thank you for making PVI2026 so utterly wonderful!
We’re already at work planning for PVI2027 (May 15th and 16th, 2027!) and one of the ways you can help improve the event is by sending in your feedback using this form. We’d love feedback from anyone who attended the event in any capacity: players, coaches, support crew, parents, spectators… anyone that was there! Please share the link with your whole community!
Thanks to Karin’s super hard work, all of the written spirit comments we received on spirit scoresheets were typed out. We will start emailing out those comments early next week. As always, you can check the complete spirit score standings here.
Here are photos of everything that was in lost and found. If you see something you’d really like to get back, please email Lee (lee@technologyventuresinc.com). Items not claimed by Monday, 5/25 will be donated.
As is always the case, it’s hard even for us to fully understand all the awesome ways the PVI comes together. One of our favorite ways to make the attempt is to watch flyover footage:
There’s a piece of me that wonders what life is like for my dog Buffy, and then PVI weekend comes around and it’s no longer a mystery. For two glorious days we all get to experience total focus, connection, and joy centered around something we deeply love. We get to be like Buffy and run hard, play a game, eat lots of tasty snacks, and sometimes flop around on a grassy field. It’s good to be Buffy. It’s good to be part of the PVI community.
While the event is fresh in your mind, we’d appreciate it if you took a minute to fill out the Post-Tournament Survey. We’d love feedback from anyone that attended the event, or worked with any team that attended. The more feedback we get the better! Share this link with your whole team!
All game and spirit results are now online in the tournament spreadsheet. The spirit score results are also posted below. If you see anything that looks off, please let us know. All game results have also been posted on ScoreReport.net: Female-Matching games, Open games — Thanks to David Thompson for this work! He’d LOVE it if people could post the rest of their games this season on the system! He’s more than happy to help and answer questions about the ScoreReport.net system: dthompso@hotchkiss.org
Congratulations to the PVI2026 spirit award winners!
