Screen Shot 2016-04-12 at 11.37.13 AMHousing assignments will start going out in the next 5-7 days.

The paperwork deadline is coming up tomorrow. Please take a minute to look over your paperwork status and make sure it matches where you think it should be. The spreadsheet was just updated.

4/12 Paperwork Update

The 3rd Annual Pioneer Valley Invitational is 38 days away!

Screen Shot 2016-04-12 at 11.37.13 AM

The 4/29 paperwork deadline is 16 days away!

You can check the status of your paperwork right here.

As stated on the paperwork page:

If your materials have not been completed by Friday, April 29th then your team will be dropped from the tournament and you will receive no refund. Seriously.

This is real and will happen if you don’t get your paperwork done by 4/29.

The paperwork is not hard, but it can’t be rushed.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Pro tip: You can’t add minors to your event roster until you’ve added an NCSI background checked chaperone to your event roster. The NCSI background check — which can’t be replaced with any other background check — can sometimes take 2-3 weeks to complete.
