Next week (Week 5) is the last week to add members to your roster. The Spring roster is the one used for the Original Member qualification. Also, starting next week, the team’s stat sheet will be included in your packet. This allows you to see how many weeks a team member has played thus far. This way, team captains can make a judgement call on who else needs to play to meet their minimum 8 in the session in order to qualify for any playoffs or tournaments.
Everyone should be able to access both their Fargo Rate app as well as the USAPL app. If you are still having trouble, please come see us. A useful function in the Fargo Rate is the Upcoming tab under your home screen. It shows who you will be playing in the near future weeks.
We have had a few questions about the use of headphones during a match. As Nationals do not allow headphone use, we are also abiding by the same rules of not allowing headphones during a match.
A new section has been added on the website under Divisions called “Vegas Qualifier Tournament”. Here, you will be able to review how to win a Vegas trip, how to maintain eligibility, and the currently qualified teams. As the year progresses, the list will be updated with qualified teams as well as singles qualifications. Speaking of singles qualifiers, we will start running singles boards around week 8 of the session (in March). This is to ensure the majority of players have already met their 8 minimum and can qualify for Singles tournament. More details for that to follow.
As a CSI sponsored league, any USAPL member may also play any other CSI sponsored tournaments. We have included one tournament that’s taking place in Temple, Texas in May. You are able to build your own team and travel there to compete for the weekend. All the information has been placed in your packet. If there is a good amount of people going, we can try and get a group rate to travel together.
