PRELIMINARY INFORMATION

Date:

Saturday, August 2, 2008

Location:

The Old Orchard
Home of Jim ('05 World Champ) & Debbie Blair
3426 N Michigan Rd, Dimondale, MI

The Old Orchard is located at 3426 N Michigan Rd in Dimondale. It is 4 miles south of I-96 (exit 101 - MLK/M-99). Look for the large Monkeyball ladder and other signage on the east side of Michigan Rd (M-99).   If you go past the entrance, there are a number of turnarounds in the median.

Fees:

Registration - $10 (includes beer and water). You can also order the official tournament t-shirt for $10. All orders must be placed by July 1. (Extra shirts may be available on the day of the tournament for $15.)

Please send $$$ PRIOR to the tournament:
Andy Frushour, 2400 Strathmore Rd, Lansing, 48910

Schedule:

Other than check in/meeting times, all times are approximate:
8:30-9:30 - Registration
8:30 - Courts open for warmup/practice
9:45 - Players Meeting (all players must attend)
10:00 - Morning Qualifying Begins (for all players)
12:30 - Championship Session (for top 28 qualifiers)
3:00 - Championship Match

Format:

Players will be divided into four groups for double-elimination morning qualifying. Each match is one game, and the last seven players remaining in each group advance to the afternoon's single-elimination Championshp session. All matches in the afternoon are best two-out-of-three. The top 32 players according to the World Rankings will be seeded in the morning session.

Sanction/Rules:

This is a sanctioned tournament. All players will receive World Rankings points. The Official Rules of Monkeyball will govern play (for a quick tutorial, read the basic rules).

Lunch:

New this year, about 40 pizzas will be delivered at noon. If you want pizza , you can just throw a couple bucks in the hat and have at it. This is a great option if you don't want to pack a lunch that morning, and it also allows you to stay at the Old Orchard all day.

What to Bring:

* A Smile
* Your "A" Game
* Lawnchairs (and tents/canopies)
* Lunch if you want something other than pizza
* I'll provide beer and water
