ONCE - A - MONTH

SATURDAY DIVISIONS

3 to 4 Person Teams (NO SKILL CAP)

Play for a chance to go to Masters Championship in April/May 2026!

To accommodate all teams, we have two separate monthly divisions. If the number of teams exceeds the capacity of these two divisions, we will create a third division and evenly distribute the teams, where possible.

One division will play on the 2nd Saturday of each month. However, to kick off the new session, this division's first week will be on Saturday, March 29th.

The other division will play on the 4th Saturday of each month, starting Saturday, March 22nd.

To meet APA requirements, each division will need to play one extra time in the same month to meet the minimum number of matches required to earn Master Vegas slots. Some adjustments may be needed for certain months regarding which Saturday you’ll division will play. 

For any questions please first review the Flyer , Sat Division Disclaimer , Rules and FAQs for further details.
