New page

The [[2011 National SCRABBLE Championship]] will
include a second annual '''Early Bird'''
tournament.
This tournament offers a playing opportunity
to a group of players who can play in fewer
SCRABBLE tournaments than others: NSC staff
and other NASPA directors.

== Official status ==

As of early June 2011, the [[Tournament Committee]]
was still deliberating the issue of whether or not this
event could be rated.

== Results ==

Results will be available online.

== Registration ==

In order to play in this tournament, you must
be listed as
[[2011 National SCRABBLE Championship#Staff|staff]]
or
[[2011 National SCRABBLE Championship#Other_Volunteers|other volunteers]]
on the NSC web page,
or you must be a certified NASPA
[[Director]] in good standing
(apprentices welcome).

If you’re interested in playing, please
email [[John Chew]] to be added to the player roster.

To be included in the pairings, you must check in at the
event at the designated time.

== Player Roster ==

* 1661 Chew, John (prefers SOWPODS, willing to play OWL)
* 1194 Bassett, Michael

== Schedule ==

All events will take place on Friday, August 5, 2011
in the main playing room.

; Registration
: 12:15–12:25 P.M.
; Round 1
: 12:30–1:30 P.M.
; Round 2
: 1:30–2:30 P.M.
; Round 3
: 2:30–3:30 P.M.

== Entry Fee ==

If the event is unrated, no entry fee will be charged
and no cash prizes awarded.
If the event is rated, a small entry fee (≤$10) will
be charged at the door to cover the participation
fee and a small prize fund.

== Prizes ==

Prizes may be donated for this event, but none are
guaranteed at this point, and we hope that those who
play do so for the sake of camaraderie and competition.

== Format ==

This event will be played according to NASPA [[Rules]]
using the [[OTCWL]] lexicon.
(If four or more players prefer [[SOWPODS]], they will play
in a separate SOWPODS division.)
All three rounds will be paired Swiss.
No division will have more than 16 players.
