Update Jun 19th: Washington State Invitational MOVED; Announcement

Major Announcement: This event is going to be awesome! However, based on the number of registered teams at this time, it does not make sense to use the casino’s event space for this tournament. We do, however, have quite a lot of participants and I want to create the best tournament experience that we can have, so here’s what’s happening:

  • The event will be moved from Muckleshoot Casino to nearby 15th Street Grill in Auburn, WA
  • Payouts will increase. All Greens Fees (and Admin Fees) will be converted to Entry Fees and added to the payouts. The overall price will remain the same.
  • The schedule will be adjusted slightly to accommodate fitting in the new space, but will more or less be the same. Minis will be most affected. Quarterfinal matches will be planned for next day.
  • Due to these event changes, I am extending the full refund cancellation period through Jun 27th.

I am very grateful and extend my sincere gratitude to Muckleshoot Casino and Bad Boys for their support. I realize this location change might be inconvenient for some, which is why I am extending the full refund period. However, I am extremely confident this is the best choice for all of the players involved, the event will be very fun, and I am really looking forward to it!
