And now a message from Elizabeth & Sonia, our waste and recycling leads:
Please spread the word! We look forward to seeing you at PVI this year, and we’re hoping to continue to set records for the least trash ever at a tournament!

The PVI2026 schedule has been finalized.
Has your team filled out the Dietary Needs form?
Has your team submitted their roster?
Are you working to clear your chaperones?
The following teams are not yet cleared to play. A team must be cleared in order to start playing on Saturday. You can view a detailed list of what you’re missing on the team status spreadsheet.

All PVI2026 coaches are about to get an invite via text message to join the PVI2026 Remind group. This is a text broadcast channel we will be using during the event to send out important messages. Please respond to the text to join the group. You do not need to install the Remind app. You’ll get the messages via regular text.
The following teams are not yet cleared to play. A team must be cleared in order to start playing on Saturday. You can view a detailed view of what you’re missing on the team status spreadsheet.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
The first draft of the PVI2026 schedule is now online right here.
Please look it over and let me (josh@pvinvite.org) know by noon tomorrow (5/8) if you have any questions or comments.
Keep in mind that at this point I’m generally only modifying the schedule due to major issues or to fix typos.
In other news…

Are you working to clear your chaperones?

And… here’s a gear teaser…


You can always check the status of your team’s items in the Team Status sheet.
If you are expecting to receive housing but you have yet to receive your housing assignment, please let me know ASAP.
Please take a minute to fill out the Dietary Needs form if you haven’t done so already. We are just about to get into the thick of our shopping and we are working extra hard to make sure teams get what they need and more importantly avoid the things they must avoid. Please fill out the form even if you have no dietary restrictions or allergies.
Also, the Team Roster form was due on April 20th.
Please remember that all teams must have two cleared chaperones. Here are the teams that have yet to achieve that requirement:

You can always track the status of your teams items/tasks right here.
From our amazing food team:
Help us pack your team bins and plan menu options with food that everyone on your team can enjoy! We will do what we can to accommodate participants’ needs (and we can do our best work with advance notice!). Most snacks for the team bins will be individually or separately packaged, to make them easier to customize.
If an allergy is so severe that we need to adjust the entire team’s bin, or if the entire team is kosher, for example, use the comments box at the end of the form to let us know, and we’ll be in touch.
Please use this form to add as many players and coaches/chaperones as you need to. Please complete the form by May 1st.
Questions or additional info? Use the comment box at the end of the form, and a parent coordinator will get back to you.

Please make an active effort to add all of your game scores to ScoreReport.net: Female-Matching Teams, Open Teams. The more games you can report, the better.

As always, you can check the status of your team’s tasks right here. I aim to update that sheet at least once every 2 days.
