We are not tolerating foolishness. We want a level fair playing field for all teams. If you try to slide in an older kid you will be dismissed from the tournament with NO refunds of any kind. Don't try it!! 

Teams come ANY time between the listed hours at your age divisions location. Makeup check-in will be early Saturday morning at "John Tarleton Park" for ALL ages NOT playing at Rocky Top Sports World, if playing at Rocky Top Sports then your makeup will be there. Makeup check-in must be approved by tournament director BEFORE the tournament begins, i.e. anytime before Nov. 18th the head coach or team mom must email in explaining why someone can't make the check-in, we will approve or deny based on reasoning. Only 1-2 kids per team MAX will be approved for makeup check-in. Please note there are NO make up check-ins at any facility not named Rocky Top Sports World or John Tarleton Park. 

Check-In process is the following:
- All players in attendance (with team jerseys OR team apparel on)
- Coaches have your "team books" (including birth certificates, player waivers & roster with jersey #'s, player name and birthdates on the roster). Be prepared to turn in a team roster at check-in (this will stay with tournament staff). This is VERY IMPORTANT!
- All players will weigh-in and receive their arm-band which is to be worn all weekend long. Players MUST repeat process if arm-band isn't on.
- One coach per team MUST sign-in to receive "Coaches Pass" - one coach signs for ALL coaches
- All players need to be in team apparel (jerseys, team hoodies, sweats, etc.)
