automatic 30 day suspension and any points earned from those
tournaments will be removed.
Round Robin draws: a player who is defaulted for any
reason other than lateness shall not play in subsequent matches. If
a player or team defaults, they will not be allowed to play the
Rounds following that defaulted match, and if subsequent matches
are played, those matches will not count towards rankings.

seeding for Ad/Sr/SS divisions and that Committees use the Texas 12

must be sent to the Tournament Director immediately after entry
