BattleGroundSanDiego launches May 24th 2009 with its inaugural event at the Mission Valley resort in San Diego.
The league is best described as an Annual Tournament Circuit complete with quarterly playoffs and both an annual Points Champion and Finals Champion in the Constructed and Sealed Deck formats. The Tournament Circuit will have events twice monthly at non-shop locations. Players in the circuit will earn points toward the points championship through participation and final standing at each event. Each format will carry its own prize structure and final 8 playoff pairings. Each event will be UDE sanctioned as required and will be staffed by a sanctioned Tournament Organizer and Tournament Judges.
The Mission Valley Resort in San Diego was chose for the inaugural event due to its central San Diego location and it close proximity to the 5, 8 and 805 freeways. The resort is easily accessible and with plenty of complimentary parking as well. The event will take place within 1200 square foot of function space and registration begins at 9:00 am with play beginning at 10:00 am thereafter.
The goal for the field will be 32 player registrations for each format. This may very well be the closest that you can get to a "Faire" atmosphere in a regional event. There is plenty of room for growth and the tournament is being advertised in San Diego, Orange, Riverside and Los Angeles counties.
Information can be found at http://www.battlegroundsandiego.com/ as well as registration for the event and a write up in PDF format regarding the Tournament Circuit.
Hope to see you there.
