Registration

Registration is done via the Tornelo system.

Entering and Naming Teams

Team names should include the full name of your school.
If entering multiple teams in the same age division, use a letter suffix for each team (A, B, C, D etc). Note: A letter suffix is only required if entering multiple teams in the same division.
Some example team names; "Ridges School A", "Ridges School B", "Thomas College", "Fairfield Intermediate School A" - The word "school" is not required.
Note: Players entered in the Rookies division should also have the full name of your school in the team name. They do not play as part of a team, however on occasion we may need to move them into the Junior division and it is helpful to have their team name.

We will invoice you after tournament completion based on the number of students that attend. Please do not bring payment on the day.
