Ok guys,
? ? ? ?Been a busy week or so for me, but here is the info. I will also be sending this to Bruce so he can update our site.
The event will be held at the La Quinta by Windham, 100 Congress Street, Springfield MA 01104.
The dates will be 3/27-3/30 Thursday through Sunday.
Doors open at 10AM on Thursday and close when the last game wraps up.
Friday, to give folks a chance to arrive and settle in, doors open at 10AM,?
Main Tournament
First Round 10AM-4PM
Second Round 5PM until finished
Third Round 9AM until 4 PM
Fourth Round 5PM until finished
Fifth Round 9AM until at latest 6PM when we get tossed out.
Thursday will be an open gaming day, with Friday beginning?the main tournament. The Main Tournament will be five rounds. There will be minit tournaments as usual. The details of which are being worked on.
To reserve a room call: 1-800-753-3757 request the room in Room Block 032725ASL.
They are holding a small number of rooms for early arrivals on Wednesday and Sunday and 2 King Bed Rooms, 2 Suites and 23 2 Queen Bed Rooms Thursday night through Saturday night. Room rates are:
109.00 per night for the King and Queen Rooms and 139.00 per night for a Suite.
Room reservation drop dead date is 2/26/2025.
The disparity in Double Queen rooms is due to the hotel renovating?while we are going to be there. On the bright side, this is ideal for people who want to split cost.?
Springfield is the home of the Basketball Hall Of Fame for those so inclined to take a road trip to see it on Thursday, rather than engaging in open gaming.
Check in is 3 PM Check Out is 11 AM.
Hot breakfast buffet in the Dining Room 6-10, heated pool and high speed internet are the usual perks that come with it.
