CONCURRENT TOURNAMENTS
When entries close, a player shall not be entered in two or more sanctioned tournaments if any parts of the tournaments overlap, unless each Tournament Committee involved understands the situation and concurs in writing. If entries for the overlapping tournaments close on different dates, approval must be received from all Tournament Committees no later than the entry closing date that occurs last. Players who enter a tournament and play it to completion, may then enter another tournament with overlapping dates without permission. A player who is on the alternate list in one tournament is not considered in violation of the Concurrent Tournament Rule if they enter another concurrent tournament.
Players who violate the Concurrent Tournament Rule shall forfeit all ranking points earned at the concurrent tournaments.
Exception to Entering Concurrent Tournament: Concurrent entries shall be permitted, but playing in concurrent tournaments is not permitted under the following conditions: • Concurrent entry is into one division of a Championship Age Up Tournament and one division of a Sectional Open Jamboree. The entry into the Championship Age Up Tournament may be in a younger division than the Sectional Open Jamboree.
Once a player accepts a position in a draw of one tournament that player may not subsequently withdraw from that tournament to play in the other. Doing so shall be considered a violation of the Concurrent Tournament Rule.
