Format for the Open Division will include two days of pool play followed by a true double elimination bracket on the third and fourth day. No Dinx will be providing 75 free entries (15 for each age division) into the Open Division of the No Dinx Open Championships. All teams participating in the open division at a USAV national qualifier will receive a coupon code via email from No Dinx.  The coupons can be used to pay for the registration fee into the NDOC beginning at 12:01 AM on May 2, 2011. The first 15 teams, per age group, to enter their coupon code online will receive a free entry for their team.  Once 15 coupons have been used, per age group, all remaining coupons, in that age group, will become void. As space is limited for this event, it is recommended that teams register for the tournament at the beginning of the season.  Payment for the tournament is not required at the time of registration, but is due by the registration deadline. Teams registering for the Open division at the beginning of the season will be entered with a ‘pending’ status until they have met the qualifying requirements. Primary seeding for this event will be based on the team’s finish in national qualifiers, “special” tournaments and Region finishes during the current season.
In addition to drawing some of the top teams from the nation, this event will offer the following:
	Championship Award Ceremonies for each age division in both club and open.
