How To Qualify
APA members may compete on a Local Qualifier
Board consisting of four to eight members with one player advancing
on to the regional competition. The local entry fee for this competition
starts at $15, and there is no limit on qualifying attempts. Members
may also choose to participate on a much larger board, called
a SPLASH which can host up to 16 players competing in a double
elimination format where a competitor must win three (3) matches
before they lose two (2). On this particular board, five (5) participants
out of sixteen (16) advances. This cost on a splash board usually
runs around $40.00. At the local level, these boards are open
to players of all skill levels
What's
