Tournament Team Certification Form (Letter Size)
CERT FORM

This is required for eligibility to play in the Tri's. Anyone not signed will be removed from the roster for the remainder of the tournament.

January 10-11 @ Bangin' Ballz and Cue Club. Please check the bracket to see where your team(s) are playing.

Tournament Structure:

The Tri-Cup Tournament is held three times a year and is considered an extension of playoffs. This tournament consists of all teams who came in first place in the division standings or won their division playoffs. The Tri-Cup Tournament is a single-modified-elimination format. In each Tri-Cup Tournament, the teams win the opportunity to advance to the World Pool Qualifiers (WPQ).

Skill Levels:

All players participating in the Tri-Cup tournament will play at their highest session-ending skill level from the session that they have qualified in or what they have played in the current session, whichever is higher.

Time-Outs:

Players that are Skill Level 3 and below are allowed TWO time-outs per rack. Timeouts are one minute.

Common Players:

If two teams meet up with a common player(s) during any tri-cup tournament, the common player(s) will either sit out of the match completely or declare a team to play on. If the common player declares a team, they will be removed from the other team's roster for the remainder of the tournament.

Players Playing on Multiple Teams:

Players playing for more than one team will need to notify their captains before the start of the tournament. It is recommended that captains have a plan to avoid any play conflicts with the other team. Matches will not be held up to wait for any player to finish another match they are playing.

Eligibility:

The roster a team will use in the Tri's is the roster they had at the last week of playoffs in the prior session. Players who did not reach 5 matches with their team will not be eligible to play in the tri-annuals.
