All Ages Welcome!! Pokémon Organized Play separates players into three age divisions; Junior, Senior and Masters. The age division that a player participates in is set at the beginning of the tournament season, based on their year of birth, and does not change over the course of that season. This allows players to compete against the same pool of opponents over the course of the season.

The age divisions are as follows: • Junior Division: Born in 1997 or later • Senior Division: Born in 1993, 1994, 1995 or 1996 • Masters Division: Born in 1992 or earlier

Prizes consist of Pokemon TCG Product, Championship Trophy, and other items to be announced at a later date. Please check www.cardleagues.com for listing of tournament prizes when they are announced.

This tournament is free to compete in. Players will need to bring a tournament legal deck in order to play.
