Does the team need to be registered for the tournament before securing housing?

If you are outside of the 50-mile radius, please refer to the Opt-out Fee in Question 5.

Is there an option to buy-out or opt-out of the Stay and Play Policy?

Once the opt-out form is submitted, you are free to book your own accommodations. However, the card will not be charged until 30-45 days prior to the event. You are NOT permitted to request a group block booking directly with the hotel at one of our approved properties.

*Once your CC is charged for the Opt-Out Fee, it is NON-REFUNDABLE.
