Teams that are re-categorized by OWHA need to let the tournament organizer know asap. BGHA will do our best to find a spot for teams that are re-categorized but you will not bump a team that has already been accepted. Those teams will be subject to availability at the time that the tournament is informed of the re-categorization.
You will not be accepted into the tournament until payment is received.
You will be contacted when you have been officially accepted into the tournament.
