If the registration affects the seeding then we will automatically move the child up to the next age group where the seeding is not affected. The additional cost for a late registration is $10.00 per player. You will need to call LPTC before 12PM on Tuesday afternoon at 770-919-8602 and pay over the phone by credit card.

FRIDAY, SATURDAY, SUNDAY TOURNAMENT
This is a Georgia Championship L4 tournament and we will begin play on Friday after 5pm. It is possible the tournament might adjust the Friday start time but we will not know this until closer to that Friday. Tournaments have a lot of different factors which affect the scheduling: number of entries, rain forecast, league matches and number of events. So if you feel like playing this event but on Friday it is not going to fit your schedule after 5pm, then it might not be the right tournament for you.
