HI everyone,
Just wanted to drop an email to let everyone know that registration is open
and running at tabroom.com
This link should get you there - BFHS JR.
<https://www.tabroom.com/index/tourn/index.mhtml?tourn_id=3976>
As a heads up, it does require a linked judge account for all judges. We
want to start using online balloting, and feel obligated as an early
tournament to push all judges to go ahead and set up a tabroom.com account.
Thanks for taking your time with this.
Hope to see you all in a month.
