Tournament Rules: Tournament Rules 2026
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.
Divisions will be cancelled at the discretion of the tournament committee due to low numbers. We will let teams know as soon as we can.
