Payment:
If you pay on-line, there is no need to mail us a copy of your Entry Application.  The date of entry will be recorded as the time and date you made your on-line payment. PayPal automatically notifies us when your payment has cleared.

If you choose to pay by check and mail your entry, make sure to print an Entry Application from Sign up To Play and mail with your fees. The date of entry will be recorded as the date your entry is received, not the postmark or date you mailed the forms. Please mail one check and print one application per CLUB. Make check payable to The Big South.

Stay & Play Hotel Entry Requirement:
Every team in the tournament needs to make housing reservations at a Big South approved hotel in the event hotel block. See the Hotel page for complete details.

Team Acceptance:
Acceptance for all divisions is first-come, first-served determined by the Date of Receipt, which is the time we receive your check/on-line payment, STP on-line entry/form and notice of finalized hotel reservations in our office, until available space is filled or February 11, 2010, whichever comes first. After February 11 teams may be accepted at the discretion of the tournament director. Only two teams will be accepted per club per division prior to February 11th. After February 11th, teams will be accepted at the discretion of the tournament director.

    PLEASE NOTE: Having pre-purchased airline tickets or hotel contracts are not criteria for acceptance into the tournament. We strongly advise you to refrain from making non-refundable commitments for air travel until you know you are accepted.

Entry Withdrawal & Refund Policy:
ALL withdrawals from the event must be submitted in writing via email by the person listed as the contact on the initial entry form or in Sign Up To Play.

There are no refunds of entry fees once a team registers for Big South and submits payment except for the following two circumstances:

    EXCEPTION ONE. If a team is denied entry because the field is filled, the team may cancel its application and receive a full refund of its entry fee (minus any Paypal fee) OR may go on a waiting list.

    EXCEPTION TWO. If a team is placed on a waiting list, the team may drop out and obtain a full refund of its entry fee (minus any Paypal fee) anytime before it is accepted into the tournament from the waiting list. Once Big South accepts the team into the tournament from the waiting list, the team will not receive a refund if it then drops out.

Division Change Requests (Open vs. Club)
You may choose to change the division in which a team is entered (i.e. 16 Open to 16 Club) only if space is available in the other division and the change does not adversely affect that division. Changes will be limited to ONE change per team at no charge. ALL changes must be submitted in writing via email from the person listed as the contact on the original entry. The time stamp on the “Request for Change” email will serve as the new date and time of official entry. We reserve the right to deny changes for the good of the tournament format.

Status of Acceptance into the Big South:
You can check whether your team has been accepted into the qualifier by going to your Sign Up To Play account and click on “Enter Events”.

You will see a list of the teams entered in the event (along with any other events you have entered) with three columns beside the names -- DIV, PAID and ACCEPTED.  This tells you what division the team is in, whether payment for your entry has been received and whether your team has been accepted into the event. 

 A complete list of accepted teams will also be posted on this web site sometime after the deadline date.
