To qualify for MVP you must play 50% of the weekly matches and the MVP Tournaments you must be on an active roster in the Summer 2025 session. Spring 2025 Session is a 16 week session. SHs players need 8 matches to qualify. Rapid and NHs, because of the bye, need 7 matches to qualify. MVP status on the MSA will start populating at week 7 due to they bye in the two divisions.

In each Division, 8-Ball, there will be two tiers, The Blue tier - 2s,3s & 4s and the The Purple Tier - 5s,6s & 7s. 9-Ball, there will be two tiers, The Green Tier - 1s,2s & 3s and The Grey Tier - 4s,5s,6s,7s,8s & 9s.

There will be one top MVP and one tier MVP, in each Division. They will win the MVP trophy and patch. Rushmore APA will then run a report, League Area wide, and invite the top 16 players from each tier to the MVP Tournament, to be held about eight weeks into the next session.

The top 16 players, in each tier, will be randomly drawn onto a Double Elimination Singles Board with two winners being qualified for Fall Regionals.

The MVP Tournament will be by invite only. If one or more of the top 16 players are unavailable for the tournament, the next player/players from the MVP list, will then be invited.

The cost will be $20.00 per player for a total of $320.00 per tier. 1st place - $160.00. 2nd place - $100.00. 3rd place - $60.00. There will be a $10 green fee.

The MVP's from each division will have a $50 Bounty on them. If they win, they keep the $50.00. If a player knocks them to the loser side of the bracket, that player will win $25.00. The player who completely knocks them out of the bracket will get the other $25.00. Rushmore APA will then cover the cost of the Singles Board to the APA National Office.
