jpt189 1 Report post Posted May 24, 2017 First 50 paid participants will get a free tournament tshirt and for the duals portion of the event we have teams from Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, and Florida signed up. I'd love to have some teams from Kentucky make the trip up. If you didn't want to pay for a hotel, you'd be allowed to stay in gym. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
