In addition tournament gear will be offered by MUVWEAR this weekend. Please consider supporting their tournament swag tent.
At the U13 Big Show UTM is awarding small trinkets for special achievements at the tournament. During pool play, and the playoffs Sunday. If an athlete accomplishes any of the items on the list below they can come visit us at the convener booth and pick up a prize. Prizes are limited, so if we do run out we will communicate that on social media. If there is nobody available at the convener booth please come back and try again later as our volunteers maybe someplace else in the park.
We would like to thank our partners for their support in offering these MVP Awards for this tournament.
