2025 Qualification Structure Changes

In an effort to create a more consistent player experience across all APA Leagues across the network, APA is standardizing the qualification structure. 
Qualifiction structure referrs to post-session play and how teams qualify for the World Qualifiers at the end of the league-year. This way, if you play in an APA League in Nebraska for example, then move to South Orange County and join a team, your experience, as it relates to getting to the World Qualifier, will be about the same.
This is very important information, especially for those of you who have been playing in South OC APA for a long time. Please read the guide in the link below. I kept it short and sweet. If you have any questions afterward, please reach out to me. I am always happy to help!!
Thank you to those of you who came to the captain's meeting on Sunday, May 4th! It was great seeing everyone!! Next time, hopefully someone snags that $50 playing Bank for Cash!! 
Also, don't forget the 2025 Team Captains Championship Vegas Qualifier is coming up on May 17th!!! Get those teams in! We will be sending TWO Captains Teams to Las Vegas in August for the 2025 APA Team Captains Championship!!
